Info accessed in Rainbow board data breach ‘deleted and has not been shared’

A report on Rainbow District School Board’s recent cyber incident states that attackers accessed data and the board now claims the data was deleted and not shared, with all critical systems restored after several days of school internet outages. The piece questions whether a ransom or extortion payment may have been made to secure deletion assurances, notes there is no confirmation, and advises those affected to remain vigilant while a formal information request seeks details on any payments.
