Those couple of paragraphs are confusing to read. They don't mention if the backup servers were also vulnerable to whatever the security problem is, and if they weren't, how they also ended up getting wiped. The article also says the failed attempt also left all that data vulnerable for months -- how is that? I wish the article was more clear and with more info. They also got the name of the coalition wrong. It's the Coalition for Good Governance*, not Governments.
In any case, I hope the FBI still has the image.
- ethbro 9y agoKSU does not have the... "most academically rigorous" reputation. How they ended up handling election records instead of GaTech (literally 30 minutes away, and closer to the Capitol) boggles the mind. But then, why would you possibly want to house sensitive records at a state university with an actual cybersecurity research focus [1]? That would just be crazy.
