Names and national identity numbers may have been exposed in the test-system breach. The university said it was replacing exposed PIN codes for 20,000 staff and students and gradually reopening restricted campus locations.
The University of Copenhagen in Denmark said it had contained a cyberattack and blocked the attacker’s access after hackers entered a test environment—a system used for testing—holding personal data on 525,000 people. The university was still investigating how much information had been exposed, BleepingComputer said in its October 26 report.
The university detected the breach on October 20 and disclosed it on October 23. In an October 25 update, it also disclosed that PIN access codes for 20,000 staff and students had been exposed. Whether those people overlap with the 525,000 remains unclear.
The university warned that the potentially exposed information included:
Staff and students whose information may have been exposed should be cautious about unsolicited communications and independently verify requests before responding.
Following the PIN-code exposure, the university restricted physical access to certain critical campus locations as a precaution. As of the October 26 report, it was distributing new access codes and gradually reopening those locations.
