The University of Texas at San Antonio detected and stopped a cyberattack attempt before it reached core systems, highlighting the rapid threat environment for universities and the increasing use of AI by cybercriminals to lower the technical barrier for attacks.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Cybersecurity.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

You must assume attackers find and scan your online systems within minutes. Secure network access and isolate critical systems before connecting to the internet to limit damage and delay attackers targeting your university or organisation.
