California State University at Sacramento employees are being notified of hack involving their SSN

Posted on October 17, 2013 by Dissent

Derek Shore reports:

The personal information of nearly 2,000 Sacramento State employees may have been compromised after a computer system was breached.

News of the August breach is just trickling out. It took the university about a month to figure out the scope of the breach and are only this week reaching out to affected employees.

Around Aug. 23, officials say they noticed a server housing the personal information of 1,800 university staff members had possibly been breached. That information included social security and driver’s license numbers.

Around Sept. 23—a full month later—they figured there was reason to believe the information had been accessed.
