An Archnews report was sent out Friday to alert University faculty, staff and students of MyID accounts that had been breached. The situation is now under inves- tigation. An incident report was filed with University Police Friday at 4:04 p.m. The report states that an unknown individual attempted to “fraudulently access secure informa- tion” on the University computer system. The attempt happened sometime between Sept. 28 at 8 a.m. and Oct. 1 at 5 p.m. At the time of the report, the reporting party said they were “not able to determine if any information was altered or deleted during the attempt.” c.b.schmelter/Staff Brian Rivers, information securi- ty officer for Enterprise Information Technology Services at the University, said little information can be shared at this time. “Right now, the issue is under investigation, so there’s not a lot we Keepin’ it fresh can disclose about how it was report- ed and the details of it,” Rivers said.
