Dear Members of the Drexel Community,

We want to inform you about recent data breaches at AT&T and Ticketmaster that have affected many customers. Unauthorized individuals gained access to the companies’ Snowflake accounts, stealing data that includes clients’ names, email addresses, phone numbers, call and text logs, and ticket sales information. This stolen data may lead to an increase in spam and phishing attacks, as cybercriminals can use this information to make their scams more thorough and convincing.

To protect yourself, please be cautious with messages containing links or unusual instructions, even if they appear to come from known sources. Never share personal or financial information or send money in response. Additionally, continue to report any suspicious emails by using the “Report” button in Outlook: drexel.edu/it/security/report-abuse/.

If you would like a refresher on information security, you can take our voluntary Drexel University's Security Training (D.U.S.T.): drexel.edu/it/security/awareness-program/dust-self-enrollment/.

Please contact informationsecurity@drexel.edu with any questions or concerns you may have.
