In this clip from our latest podcast, Martin Hinton and William Altman dive into the long-term consequences of data breaches — especially those affecting K–12 students. Highlighting the PowerSchool breach, which exposed 60 million student records, they explore how leaked personal data like mental health history may resurface decades later, leaving individuals vulnerable to fraud, identity abuse, and digital exploitation.

Altman warns that while credit monitoring may address financial risk, it fails to protect against deeper psychological and reputational harm. This conversation is a must-hear for educators, parents, and policymakers thinking beyond immediate breach responses.

Education Cybersecurity Exposed: Long-Term Impact of K–12 Cybersecurity Breaches
The threat of cybersecurity breaches in 2025 and the long-term damage of a cyberattack. In this episode of the Cyber Insurance News Podcast, Executive Editor Martin Hinton interviews William Altman, Head of Cyber Threat Intelligence at CyberCube. They explore the evolving world of cybersecurity and cyber insurance. The episode dives into why small businesses are highly vulnerable, how AI is both a weapon and a shield in cyber defense and the critical gaps in threat intelligence. They also discuss basic measures even the smallest business can take to protect themselves from a cybersecurity breach. 

A spotlight is cast on the education sector, where underfunded cybersecurity programs have made schools a prime target for threat actors. These cybersecurity breaches can have a lasting impact. One alarming breach compromised 60 million K-12 student records, revealing sensitive data like mental health histories, data that can't be “reset” like a credit card. This breach raises urgent concerns about the long-term impacts of cybercrime on students' privacy, identity, and future safety, far beyond the limits of traditional credit monitoring.

They also explore the security posture of the financial sector, the power of identity and privileged access management, and the real-world impact of software vulnerabilities.

In the wake of the Harrods hack and cyberattacks impacting other retailers, the alarming state of UK cybersecurity will be revealed in 2024. From cyberattacks hitting major UK retailers like Co-op and Harrods to small businesses struggling without protection, the message is clear—cybercrime is a national threat.

New research by Pen Underwriting reveals that while 90% of UK and Irish businesses feel secure, only 47% have dedicated cyber insurance. Even more shocking—only 18% of businesses earning under £1 million are covered. The cost isn’t just financial—real people suffer, like the couple who lost their wedding cake due to a ransomware attack.

Watch now to understand:

Why UK businesses are dangerously unprepared

How cyberattacks are more common than fires or theft

The key role of employee training, data backups, and multi-factor authentication (MFA)

Why cyber insurance is no longer optional
