0:04
University of Technology in the

Netherlands following a Cyber attack
0:07

0:10
at 9:00 p.m. on Saturday by the
0:12
University's it department they say they

noticed unusually heavy and suspicious
0:16
traffic on the University's digital

decision to take the servers offline the
0:23
shutdown of the University's network has
0:25
caused major disruptions to faculty

members who lost access to platforms
0:35
jobs the network breach came at a time
0:37
when students are preparing for exams
0:45
assessments well for Vance the
0:47
university has been the target of cyber
0:49
attacks in the past students say more
0:52
needs to be done to enhance network
0:54
security this is also like not the first
0:56
time that the university gets hacked and
0:58
I think it's just like a major problem
1:00
and for example the the way the
1:02
university gets hacked is more advanced
1:04
every time I think now with the
1:06
development of AI like fishing is more
1:08
advanced than other uh techniques that
1:11
hackers May employ maybe like the
1:12
university needs funds to secure its
1:15
systems of course because like research
1:18
important the University's
1:20
Administration has announced that all
1:22
exams and assessments scheduled for the
1:23
20th of January will be postponed by one
