AL: Wallace Community College hacked

Posted on February 25, 2012 by Dissent

The Virtual SEPO blog reports that Wallace Community College in Alabama was hacked. Included in the data dump/proof of hack were 8 usernames, e-mail addresses, and passwords and a second table with 276 usernames, passwords, and full names. The passwords appear to be MD5 and were easily cracked using an online tool.

The college was notified of the breach by this blog, who responded to the notification. Publication was delayed to give them time to secure their site.
