The UAH Office of Information Technology has reported that a phishing attack in January 2021 resulted in the compromise of multiple UAH email accounts.
A few of the compromised emails did include personal data like name, date of birth, or social security number.
However, according to school administrators, neither the server nor directory were affected, and neither were the payment card or banking details.
272 people had their data potentially compromised by UAH, who addressed warnings and provided a year of free credit monitoring and identity theft detection services.
According to a statement from UAH, the university has added security assessment procedures and taken preventive steps to safeguard the security of sensitive data kept on all systems and devices since this incident.
