SB 930: Student Test Taker Privacy Protection Act: end-to-end encryption.

The proposed legislation aims to protect the privacy of K-12 students by requiring businesses providing proctoring services in educational settings to use end-to-end encryption for exams. This means that data will be encrypted on the student's device and remain encrypted until it reaches the intended recipient's device, making it unreadable by any other party, including the business providing proctoring services. The bill also builds upon the California Consumer Privacy Act and the California Privacy Rights Act, which impose various obligations on businesses with respect to personal information. The legislation seeks to further the purposes and intent of the California Privacy Rights Act by protecting student data and promoting student online safety.
