Several #EdTech folks asked me to review the #InfiniteCampus data dump by #ShinyHunters to see if any sensitive student data was leaked as part of it.

I wrote up what I found here: https://databreaches.net/2026/03/28/thankfully-the-infinite-campus-incident-did-not-involve-a-lot-of-non-directory-student-information/

One takeaway for school districts is to remind employees NOT to include student PII or PHI in support tickets to vendors. I've been told it is sometimes required or necessary, but then why weren't tickets like the ones I saw stored with encryption?
