The microfilms were being sent from a firm in Winnipeg to the Waterloo Region District School Board for storage. They never arrived at the school board and are now classified as lost. The films contain the names, birth dates, parents’ names, grades, and sometimes also the photos and birth documents of 2,279 students, said Linda Fabi, the board’s director of education. _______________________________________________ Dataloss Mailing List (dataloss () datalossdb org) Archived at http://seclists.org/dataloss/ Unsubscribe at http://datalossdb.org/mailing_list Learn encryption strategies that manage risk and shore up compliance.
