A data breach at a Colorado university has potentially exposed the personal details of 30,000 current and former students.
The University of Colorado Boulder announced that the incident was a result of a cyber-attack on third-party service Atlassian.
Atlassian is a software program used by the institution’s Office of Information Technology to share resources and documents.
As a result of the attack, some files stored in the program were illegally accessed, with potentially exposed data including personally identifiable information for current and former students that included names, student ID numbers, addresses, dates of birth, phone numbers, and genders.
