U of C Student Information Compromised
fhqwhgads writes "SFTP access to the University of Chicago's web server has been temporarily blocked as Networking Services and Information Technology (NSIT) responds to 'the discovery by a campus web developer that files containing social security numbers were located on a portion of a public server that could be accessed by web developers not associated with the site.' The Chicago Maroon is reporting that this was done without escalation of privileges, and that some files were accessible from the internet."
What more is there to say?
Sometimes boldness is in fashion. Sometimes only the brave will be bold.
Isn't it amazing what you can find on Google?
