Another security breach at UMd. College Park

WASHINGTON — It’s happened again. The University of Maryland, College Park is dealing with yet another cyber attack.

The Baltimore Sun reports the breach is unrelated to last month’s attack, where a data base with hundreds of thousands of social security numbers were taken by hackers.

According to a campus letter released Thursday, the personal information of one senior university official was compromised.

The FBI, Secret Service and campus police are all investigating, according to the Sun.
