University of Nottingham confirms student data breach affecting over 450,000 individuals

PatternExternal actor · Hacking · Confidentiality impact

The University of Nottingham confirmed a cyber criminal group accessed a significant amount of personal data belonging to current students and alumni. The breach affected the university's Campus Solutions record system, with unauthorized activity identified on Tuesday (June 9, 2026). The university immediately took affected systems offline, launched an investigation, and contacted those believed to be impacted. The full scope is still being verified, but the university is working on the assumption that several categories of information may have been accessed, including student finance data, billing and payment information, credit card details, full names, home addresses, IP addresses, phone numbers, and dates of birth. The breach is allegedly linked to broader Oracle PeopleSoft compromises.
