Internet security breach found at UCSF
“Hackers may have had access to personal information for about 600 UCSF patients as a result of an Internet ‘phishing’ scam, campus officials said Tuesday.
The security breach occurred in September when a faculty physician in the UCSF School of Medicine provided a user name and password in response to a scam e-mail message. The e-mail had been sent by hackers and made to look as though it came from UCSF workers who are responsible for upgrading security on internal computer servers.”
