UCLA Summer Sessions & International Education Office reported a cyberattack where an attacker gained unauthorized access to a server containing student personal information, including names, addresses, dates of birth, social security numbers, health insurance subscriber IDs, and some medical information. Forensic analysis did not show that the attacker actually accessed or acquired any personal information, but the possibility could not be ruled out. The organization offered 12 months of identity protection services via AllClear ID.
