On July 21, 2023, Saint Xavier University discovered suspicious activity on its network and launched an investigation to determine the nature and scope of the breach. The forensic investigation confirmed that the third party accessed Saint Xavier University’s computer systems between June 29 and July 18, 2023, and that certain files may have been acquired from Saint Xavier University’s systems as part of the incident. Affected consumers were not notified of the Saint Xavier University data breach until October 30, 2024. Saint Xavier University discovered that hackers were able to compromise a significant amount of personal information. The compromised information includes a variety of highly sensitive details including:
- Names,
- Social security numbers,
- Financial account numbers
The Saint Xavier University Data Breach Investigation
Saint Xavier University informed the Maine State Attorney General’s office of the breach, where a copy of the consumer notification letter can be found. All of the information stolen is likely valuable and dangerous to affected victims. As is likely to be the case with the Saint Xavier University data breach, in previous data breaches, victims of data theft have noticed identity theft attempts ranging from fraudulent charges on bank accounts or credit cards, to unauthorized credit card applications, to medical services or government services ordered in their name, to their information being posted on the dark web, to a massive uptick in the number of spam text messages, calls and emails received.
