University Computer’s Breached
Identity Theft . Law Enforcement . NewsTwo university computers’ security breached. Two recent security breaches of computers at the University of Delaware may have exposed the names and Social Security numbers stored in databases, university officials said. A School of Education computer was attacked in late August by a hacker whose intent appears to have been to establish an illegal movie sharing system. The computer contained a database that included Social Security numbers of 772 students registered in online education courses. A Department of English computer also was hacked in August in an apparent attempt to log on to and control one server, and then gain control over other campus servers. In both of the unrelated cases, the objective of the intruder seemed to be unrelated to the fact the databases contained personal information, officials said. To date, there has been no indication that any identity theft has occurred as a result of these incidents. The University of Delaware is located in Newark, DE.
