Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton has filed a lawsuit against PowerSchool over its massive 2024 data breach. The lawsuit claims that PowerSchool violated both the Texas Deceptive Trade Practices Act and the Identity Theft Enforcement and Protection Act by misleading customers about its security practices and failing to take reasonable measures to protect sensitive information entrusted by Texas families and school districts.

You may know this already, but in case you didn't: Threat actors have leaked some data from 2 more K-12 public school districts this week:
Some personal info on students at Coweta County School System was leaked by Nitrogen as proof of claims. I googled the parent information and found an exact match for name, address, and phone number.
Data from Kalamazoo Public School District was leaked by InterLock. InterLock claimed to have acquired 1,420 GB of data consisting of 724,477 Files and 82,820 Folders. It looks like they leaked it all but I didn't attempt to validate any data.
