J. Campana & Associates, LLC released a study titled "How Safe Are We in Our Schools?" in November 2008. This study, produced by Joseph E. Campana, Ph.D., CIPP/G, CITRMS, analyzed the Privacy Rights Clearinghouse Chronology of Data Breaches from January 2005 through October 2008 and found that the Education sector accounted for nearly one third of all reported breaches. Here is some more interesting information from the study:
- Higher Education accounted for 79% of all education-related breaches
- Higher Education accounted for 78% of all compromised consumer profiles in the Education sector
- The Education sector only accounts for between 0.6% and 13% of all entities in the United States
The full student can be found on the J. Campana & Associates, LLC web site here.
