Share

The University of Copenhagen confirmed that a cyberattack compromised a personal database containing information on approximately 525,000 people. The breach, detected on October 20 and publicly disclosed on October 23, exposed names, identity numbers, phone numbers, and email addresses. Access-card codes belonging to 20,000 students and employees were also leaked and replaced, while several systems remain closed as a precaution without having been compromised. Investigators have not yet established that the data was published or used for fraud, but it could facilitate targeted scams, including in the cryptocurrency sector.
