沃肖县学区警告家长:匿名举报系统SafeVoice疑遭数据窃取,约一成举报信息或泄露

沃肖县学区(WCSD)10月22日向家长发出通知,称其匿名威胁举报系统 SafeVoice 的机密信息"可能已被访问、复制或窃取"。学区表示,是内华达州教育部先向学区通报了这起数据泄露事件,受影响用户涉及多个州。
根据通知,约10%经该系统提交的举报中可能含有可识别个人身份的信息被窃取。由于州法律限制及该系统匿名设计,"无法直接通知个人信息可能受损的个人"。学区称,州政府正与教育界负责人合作,"要求第三方供应商 Navigate360 给出交代并保持透明"。SafeVoice 目前仍全面运行,所有举报渠道继续有人值守;但州教育部正在评估其他安全性更强的平台。
学区建议认为个人信息可能受损者考虑使用身份盗用保护和信用监控服务。Navigate360 已设立咨询热线,工作日太平洋时间早6点至晚6点可拨打833-966-1754。更多信息可在沃肖县学区官网搜索SafeVoice查询。SafeVoice 是内华达州学校常用的匿名举报威胁与安全隐患的渠道,此次事件凸显校园安全系统自身的数据安全风险。
Washoe County School District Warns Parents: Anonymous Reporting System SafeVoice May Have Been Breached, About 10% of Tip Information May Have Leaked
The Washoe County School District (WCSD) notified parents on October 22 that confidential information from its anonymous threat reporting system, SafeVoice, 'may have been accessed, copied or taken.' The district said the Nevada Department of Education first alerted it to the data breach, and affected users span multiple states.
According to the notice, personally identifiable information may have been taken in about 10% of tips submitted through the system. Because of state law restrictions and the system's anonymous design, 'individuals whose personal information may have been affected cannot be notified directly.' The district said the state is working with education leaders to 'hold the third-party vendor Navigate360 accountable and demand transparency.' SafeVoice remains fully operational, with all reporting channels staffed; however, the state Department of Education is evaluating other, more secure platforms.
The district advised those who believe their personal information may have been affected to consider identity theft protection and credit monitoring services. Navigate360 has set up a hotline at 833-966-1754, available weekdays from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. Pacific Time. More information is available by searching for SafeVoice on the Washoe County School District website. SafeVoice is a widely used channel in Nevada schools for anonymously reporting threats and safety hazards, and this incident highlights the data security risks of campus safety systems themselves.
