| An unprecedented string of electronic intrusions has prompted Ohio
| University to place at least one technician on paid administrative
| leave and begin a sweeping reorganization of the university's
| computer services department.
|
| Bill Sams, Ohio University's chief information officer, said he
| ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
| initiated the reorganization on Friday. The Athens, Ohio-based
| university is reacting to recent discoveries that data thieves
| compromised at least three campus computer servers.
|
| In a disclosure that hasn't been widely reported, one of the
| compromised servers, which held Social Security numbers belonging
| to 137,000 people, was penetrated by U.S. and overseas-based hackers
| for at least a year and possibly much longer, Sams said in a phone
| interview Sunday with CNET News.com.
