Hacker breaches server at ISU
Officials for Indiana State University (ISU) report that a malicious hacker has
accessed a server containing sensitive data, including names, birthdates,
Social Security numbers, and other information, on 35,000 current and former
students and staff. ISU officials say they have no evidence that the attacker
accessed or downloaded the data, but have not ruled out the possibility. The
school's Office of Information Technology is investigating the breach, and the
FBI (Federal Bureau of Investigation) has been notified. ISU is also working
with Equifax to issue fraud alerts with two other major credit bureaus, and
will send letters to those affected by the breach.
