Hackers accessed more than 59,000 records within the California State University at Chico (CSU Chico). The records, which were stored in two files within the University Housing and Food Service system, include those of students, faculty and non-enrolled applicants.
Some of the information stored belonged to individuals who were admitted to, but had not matriculated at CSU Chico. Their data had been sent to the Housing and Food Service department in order to allow the department to distribute housing information. The university will be reviewing its confidential data storage and deletion policies.
One file contained names, Social Security numbers and university identification numbers, birth dates and gender, while the other held names and Social Security numbers, home addresses and emergency contact names. Neither file held drivers
