The Pennsylvania State Education Association (PSEA), a teachers' union, reported a cyberattack that led to the theft of sensitive personal data of over 500,000 members.
The stolen information includes government-issued identification documents, Social Security numbers, passport numbers, medical information, and financial information.
Member account numbers, PINs, passwords, and security codes were also accessed during the breach.
PSEA indicated that they took steps to ensure the stolen data was deleted, but paying a ransom does not guarantee data deletion.
