We had an interesting incident regarding the capturing of credentials. We are still investigating the incident and we are rather short on theories as to how the login/password combination was breached. Our best guess is an infected web browser on a PC which was used on Tuesday. I am curious if anyone else has had credentials captured this way? We have not yet scanned the machine but have quarantined it for the time being while we consider next steps. Thanks in advance! ---- Emily Harris Interim Information Security Officer, CIS Vassar College 845-437-7221
