Princeton discloses data breach affecting donors, alumni

🔒 Princeton University disclosed a November 10 cyberattack in which threat actors phished an employee and accessed a database used for fundraising and alumni engagement. The attackers exfiltrated biographical information such as names, email addresses, telephone numbers, and home and business addresses for alumni, donors, faculty, staff, and students. University officials say the compromised system did not contain financial data, passwords, or Social Security numbers, and they have blocked the intruders' access while investigating. Affected individuals are urged to verify any communications claiming to be from the university and to avoid sharing sensitive information.
