Platforms Offline: Cyberattack on TU Munich

The Technical University of Munich (TUM) has taken core online platforms for students offline after a cyberattack. Attackers reportedly entered through a legacy system and potentially gained access to data of students and staff, though it is still being investigated whether any data was stolen. The university says sensitive data such as grades, exam results, applications and bank details does not appear to have been leaked, and it is advising users to change passwords and enable multi-factor authentication.
