Another confidential data leak has been registered by the InfoWatch analytical center. A database with personal information on the more than 19,276 students enrolled at UTPA (The University of Texas-Pan American) was available for two months due to a University employee error. Student names, e-mails, addresses, phone numbers, IDs, as well as all GPAs, majors and other data were posted online.
According to the security service, 15 attempts of unauthorized access have been detected since September 1. They could not identify the intruders. The security service apologized for any inconvenience it may have caused, and promised to take measures to avoid such situations in future.
