Case Study Maricopa Community College security breach

The following case study describes a security breach of major proportions. IT

currently stands as a landmark example of what can happen if network and

computer security is not taken seriously and if people and organization do not

act responsibly to protect information and computer infrastructure

In 2011, the Maricopa Community College system (which comprises 10

different colleges and campuses) experienced a breach of its systems. At that

time, it only affected about 400 people and was not publically disclosed.
