What record it asks for
Logging duty
Section 10-234dd(a)(3) requires a board of education to notify the affected student and parents electronically within two business days of a contractor's breach notice and to post the notice on its web site. A notice is not a record of processing, access or decisions, and no clause tells a board to keep a log. The section states no territorial clause, so the hook is left empty.

What this law does
Not later than two business days after a local or regional board of education receives a contractor's notice of a breach of security under section 10-234dd(a)(1) or (2), the board must electronically notify the student and the parents or guardians of the student whose student information, student records or student-generated content is involved. The board must also post the notice on its Internet web site.
A contractor must give the board that notice without unreasonable delay and within thirty days after discovering a breach of student information other than directory information, and within sixty days for directory information, student records or student-generated content. Public Act 17-200 replaced forty-eight hours with two business days in section 10-234dd(a)(3), effective .
