TU Eindhoven hackers had access to log-in details of employee, student: report

The hack at Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e) earlier this month was possible because the cyber attackers had the login details of at least one employee and one student, insiders told the Volkskrant. With that data, they could log into the university’s Windows domain via various accounts. The university quickly noticed and took its network offline during the early hours of Sunday, January 12.
