Karina Ioffee provides additional details on the CSU – East Bay breach reported yesterday:
The intrusion on August 23, 2013 by an unknown person using malicious software was discovered August 11 during a routine security check by the university’s technology department, said Jeff Bliss, a university spokesman. Bliss said university IT workers found that there were few traces of the intrusion, which was discovered when an employee found a file that was in the wrong place.
The breach also impacted 500 students, Ioffee reports.
