Date: 02 October 2007
Incident Type: Vulnerability Disclosure
WASC Threat Classification: Insufficient Authorization

Personal information on anyone who worked or volunteered for the Pembroke schools in the last four years was accessible via the Internet because of a weakness in the district's computer system. The information, including names, birth dates and Social Security numbers, was available from May until Oct. 2, when school officials learned of the problem.
