Personal information, SAT scores and GPAs of nearly 1,350 students at a suburban Maryland high school were exposed after a student figured out the username and password needed to access the data.
The student allegedly downloaded demographic data October 3 associated with Wheaton High School students’ accounts on Naviance.
Montgomery County Public Schools, said the student wrote a program or algorithm that tried various combinations of usernames and passwords.
The student does not attend Wheaton High, and Turner declined to identify the student because the person is a minor.
