August Data Breaches Strike Yale and 4 Other Schools

According to multiple media reports, the New Haven, CT institution accidently allowed a Google search engine to index a database containing private information about 43,000 former faculty, staff, and students who were involved with the university in 1999.
The breach was discovered June 30 when an individual in that database did a search on his own name and discovered that his Social Security number was publicly displayed.
