Dear Colleagues,
The College received notification from TIAA that one of its third-party vendors has been affected by the MOVEIt security vulnerability. TIAA confirmed that there are some individuals affiliated with the College whose personal information was involved.
TIAA is the latest organization reporting that it has been impacted by the vulnerability in the MOVEIt file transfer application that has been covered in national and technology media<\/a>. Wednesday evening, I wrote that the National Student Clearinghouse (NSC) notified us that some of the student data we provides to them was accessed in a similar incident.\u00a0
TIAA has indicated that the personal information that is part of the incident is first and last name, address, date of birth, gender, and Social Security Number.\u00a0
Pension Benefit Information, LLC (“PBI”), TIAA\u2019s third-party vendor, will send affected individuals a letter in the coming weeks offering free credit monitoring for two years at no cost to them.
Additional information is provided in the TIAA update received today (below).\u00a0
For additional information on safeguarding your account and staying updated, please visit the TIAA Security Center<\/a> or contact TIAA directly at 800-842-2252 or via email at abuse@tiaa.org<\/a>
Information Technology continues to monitor this developing event, both through TIAA communications and information security lists.\u00a0 We will provide relevant updates as we have them. We are compiling information about the College\u2019s service providers that have been impacted by the MOVEIt vulnerability on IT\u2019s website<\/a>.
If you have any questions about this incident, please contact Vince DiScipio or Ellen Falduto.<\/p><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/section>\n\n\n\nFAQ<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
