The Nashville Career Advancement Center exposed the names and social security numbers of 160 clients on the web. However, officials have determined the exposure to Internet searches was limited.
The Career Advancement Center helps workers in a four county region find jobs. It identified the weakness and has taken down its Web site as a precaution.
Google has been contacted and agreed to remove all reference related to the sensitive data. The job training agency is in the process of notifying affected clients and will provide credit protection for one year.
The Web site won’t be fully operational until a security consultant and Metro IT Services sign off.
