Overview
- University IT staff took all internet-facing servers offline after a confirmed hacking incident to stop further external access.
- The university website, email and multiple online services remain unavailable, leaving students and staff unable to receive university emails.
- A university crisis team is working intensively on remediation and technical analysis to trace how the attackers penetrated systems.
- Officials have not confirmed any data exfiltration and investigators have not yet identified the attack vector.
- Keeping external systems offline has limited outside access but prolonged internal disruption and may lead to forensic reviews and required data‑protection notifications.
