Florida Department of Education says financial aid website breach may have exposed Social Security numbers of about 4.9 million people
The Florida Department of Education (FLDOE) said on Oct 29 2026 that it became aware on Oct 19 of "unauthorized criminal access to the financial aid website". Personally identifiable information, including Social Security numbers, was potentially exposed. FLDOE says it stopped the activity, contained the incident and secured its systems, notified the office of Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier, and is working with the Florida Digital Service and the Florida Department of Law Enforcement. It says financial aid disbursements, tuition payments and eligibility for scholarships, grants and student loans are not affected. In an update later on Oct 29, FLDOE said the breach, which appears limited to the Florida Student Financial Aid website (FloridaStudentFinancialAidSG.org), may have affected approximately 4.9 million people. It hasn't said who was behind the attack or how the intrusion happened, and the case remains under criminal investigation.
