NV: CCSD says data breach has exposed student, staff information

Ricardo Torres-Cortez reports:

Names and “in some instances” dates of birth of more than 550,000 former and current Clark County School District students were compromised in a data security incident.

The snafu occurred with a clinical assessment program — also known as AIMSweb — which was contracted by CCSD through the Pearson vendor, said the school district in a news release Thursday night.

AIMSweb1.0 is no longer in use, but the district still works with the vendor, the release said. Pearson’s other services weren’t affected by the security incident.
