The article highlights a significant data breach involving BoardDocs, a widely used software tool by school boards, which has compromised confidential records including those protected by attorney-client privilege. The breach, which affects districts across the United States, was only acknowledged by its parent company, Diligent Corporation, after media investigations revealed the incident's scope. Many school districts were unaware of the breach until they were contacted by The 74, leading to questions about the transparency and communication from Diligent regarding such critical vulnerabilities.
