UW-Platteville investigating potential security breach

InfoSec News: UW-Platteville investigating potential security breach: http://www.uwpexponent.org/2010/04/22/uw-platteville-investigating-potential-security-breach/
By Andrew Brunner Exponent Online April 22, 2010
An investigation is underway about a potential breach of secure information at UW-Platteville.
Barb Daus, public information officer* at UW-P, confirmed this week that the university is investigating a potential breach in security, but would not confirm what exactly was breached. Daus did say that the student information system (PASS), employee records and financial records for the university were not compromised.
Daus said that the investigation is being held internally through the human resources department. She would not say if the investigation had also been passed on to law enforcement or if charges had been filed against those involved.
This information comes three weeks after the Exponent received word from a source close to the situation that an emergency meeting was held for all Office of Information Technology staff. At this meeting it was announced that someone within the networking department in OIT had done something "bad" and was being removed from the position. It was also announced that Andrew Krueger, academic computer support specialist for the college of BILSA, was being moved to networking to fill the void.
Daus said the names of those involved with the potential breach could not be released for personnel reasons and possible hindrances to the investigation. She also said she could not comment as to whether or not those involved have been put on leave or are still working at UW-P.
"What is most important is that no student information, no human resources information and no university financial information has been compromised," Daus said. "I only know what information is not involved."
Daus said she has released all the information she can on the incident and that more information will not be released until the investigation is over. She had no time line on the investigation.
Log on to uwpexponent.org for updates as soon as we have them.
..........
* Correction (4/22/2010): Daus's official title is Public Information Officer, not Chief Information Officer as previously reported.
