Another day, another cyberattack! This cyberattack happened at Penn State University and potentially compromised 30,000 social security numbers. Happy New Year to all the returning students!
The Social Security numbers of about 30,000 people became vulnerable after malicious software attacked Penn State University computers some time before Dec. 23, school officials said Tuesday...
The school is trying to determine whose Social Security numbers were exposed, Mountz said. She could not say whether they belonged to faculty, staff, alumni or others.
The breaches involved 7,758 records in the Eberly College of Science, 6,827 records in the College of Health and Human Development, and about 15,000 records from a Penn State branch campus.
Is it China that is doing all of this damage? Who knows, but Colonel Gary McAlum testified before Congress that our country's cyber capabilities are woefully behind China's cyber capabilities.
