Chinese Hack on Belgium Intelligence Service

Oral Roberts University (ORU) recently reported a potential data breach to the Attorney General of Massachusetts, indicating that sensitive personal identifiable information under its care may have been compromised. However, the university did not provide detailed information about the nature of the security incident in the breach notice. The breach potentially affected various types of personal data, including individuals’ names and Social Security numbers. While specific details about the scope of the exposure were not revealed, the university’s notification to the authorities suggests that a security vulnerability led to this breach.

Following the discovery of the breach, ORU took steps to inform those potentially impacted.

The university began mailing out data breach notification letters to the affected individuals, explaining the situation and outlining the types of information that may have been exposed. This move is in line with state regulations, requiring transparency and communication with those affected by such incidents.

The breach notifications provided details on the affected information for each individual and aimed to keep the affected individuals informed throughout the process.

As part of its response, ORU is offering affected individuals 24 months of complimentary credit monitoring services. This service is intended to mitigate the risks associated with identity theft and provide a safety net for individuals whose personal information may have been exposed.

Credit monitoring is one of the most common measures taken in the wake of data breaches to protect affected individuals from further harm, such as fraudulent activity or identity theft.

Oral Roberts University, located in Tulsa, Oklahoma, is a prominent Christian liberal arts institution founded in 1963. With over 5,000 students enrolled annually, ORU offers a wide range of academic programs across its six colleges and schools. The university competes in Division I NCAA athletics and has 16 intercollegiate athletic teams. While the breach raises concerns over the security of personal information, ORU is actively addressing the situation and providing support to those impacted.
