The exposed information includes entire email outbox, including correspondence with active members of the U.S. military of one of the NYU institute's chiefs.
The project, a cooperative supercomputing venture run by NYU, the Department of Defense, and IBM, was described in dozens of documents totaling hundreds of pages.
