The East Valley Institute of Technology (EVIT) based in Mesa, Arizona, reported a breach impacting the records of 208,717 students across 48 personally identifiable information (PII) categories — considered by security pros to be a much larger list than in most security incidents. Darren Guccione, co-founder and CEO at Keeper Security, pointed out that while we often hear about breaches that involve data such as names, addresses or Social Security numbers, the inclusion of additional sensitive information such as biometric data, login credentials, and military ID numbers significantly escalates the severity of this breach.
