PowerSchool, a provider of K-12 software and cloud solutions, had a breach over the holidays. But not to worry, they paid the cybercriminals who hacked them and they have a video of the crooks deleting the data.
"PowerSchool has received reasonable assurances from the threat actor that the data has been deleted and that no additional copies exist."
Thank goodness the threat actors are so reasonable, right? SMH.
