Google exposes the Skulls and Bones in Yale’s closet

Yale University has notified about 43,000 faculty, staff, students and alumni that their names and Social Security numbers were publicly available via Google search for about 10 months. The breach resulted when a File Transfer Protocol (FTP) server on which the data was stored became searchable via Google as the result of a change the search engine giant made last September. Yale discovered the breach in June, it immediately took the server offline, deleted the sensitive data and deleted the files. The sad fact is that this could have happened to any institution.”]
