The student welfare organization Sit, serving Gjøvik, Ålesund, and Trondheim, has been the target of a data breach affecting its customer database. The organization was alerted to the incident by its system provider on Friday, revealing potential unauthorized access to personal information. Approximately 780 students with connections to Sit may be impacted and have been notified of the potential compromise. Sit has taken measures to halt the malicious activity and secure the database, identifying and rectifying the issue. While the attack appears linked to potential financial gain through SMS verification, complete certainty remains elusive. Authorities, including the Norwegian Data Protection Authority, have been informed of the breach. Sit assures that the problem has been resolved, but continues to monitor the situation closely.
