Australian National University Suffers Data Breach
The Australian National University (ANU) said it detected the breach two weeks ago and is working with security agencies to investigate further.
In a statement, Vice Chancellor Brian Schmidt said, "We believe there was unauthorized access to significant amounts of personal staff, student and visitor data extending back 19 years. Depending on the information you have provided to the University, this may include names, addresses, dates of birth, phone numbers, personal email addresses and emergency contact details, tax file numbers, payroll information, bank account details and passport details. Student academic records were also accessed. "
