![]() ![]() ![]() Jimenez abruptly quit his $205,000-a-year job when the conflict-of-interest was exposed. The company is also linked to a scandal under ex-Chancellor Richard Carranza, who hired a California friend, Abram Jimenez, with a financial stake in Illuminate. Illuminate has raked in more than $16 million from DOE schools in the last three years, records show. Such attacks have crippled other education agencies. The city Department of Education gave no reason for the shutdown, but some experts suggest Illuminate may be a victim of ransomware, in which hackers freeze a system and demand payments to release it. When the systems went down last Saturday, Illuminate said it appeared to be “the result of an attempted security incident.” The company did not explain or return messages from The Post, but emailed principals Friday it is transferring the data to a “new secured environment.” A related system, Pupil Path, lets students and parents log on for information. Illuminate Education sells a system called Skedula for teachers and administrators to track student attendance, grades, special-ed plans, behavioral problems and family contact information.
