One expert says there will “have to be a decision” how to best to protect students and teachers, and some districts pay up
The Los Angeles Unified School District, the victim of a majorover Labor Day weekend, has received a ransom demand from the person or group that hacked into its systems, though officials have not indicated if they intend to pay or enter into any negotiations.
He maintained that there has been no evidence that employees’ payroll information or Social Security numbers were compromised. Regardless of whether L.A. Unified decides to pay the ransom, one cybersecurity expert said the district will likely incur a hefty bill as it recovers from the data breach. In the last two years, Baltimore County Public Schools in Maryland spent nearly $9.7 million in recovery costs, and the school board in Buffalo, N.Y., approved nearly $9.4 million in expenditures for IT consultants after its districts were attacked by ransomware,K12 SIX, a nonprofit that tracks cybersecurity threats among school districts throughout the United States.

The ants go marching one by one - 20 quadrillion of themResearchers have made the most thorough assessment to date of the global population of ants - insects that have colonized almost everywhere on the planet - and the estimated total is a mind-blowing 20 quadrillion of them, or approximately 2.5 million for every human. It should come as little surprise considering how ubiquitous these busy and social insects are and the fact that they have thrived since the age of dinosaurs, with the oldest-known ant fossil dating back about 100 million years to the Cretaceous Period. 'Ants certainly play a very central role in almost every terrestrial ecosystem,' said entomologist Patrick Schultheiss of the University of Würzburg in Germany and the University of Hong Kong, co-lead author of the study published this week in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
