Student, staff and business files taken in a failed ransomware attack against the LA Unified School District began to appear on the dark web Sunday.
The Vice Society site included a message Sunday that said,"CISA wasted our time, we waste CISA reputation," near a link to download the LAUSD files.CISA is the acronym for the federal cyber-security agency that published a national warning in early September about Vice Society targeting educational institutions.
The LAUSD said in its statement Friday that it would provide an update in the event the stolen material was released. “To our school community and partners, we will update you when we have relevant information, and notify you if your personal information is impacted, as appropriate,” the District said.
“We also expect to provide credit monitoring services, as appropriate, to impacted individuals. We will have more to share about how to sign up for credit monitoring services in the coming days,” the statement said.
