Social Security numbers of Nearly 30,000 students who enrolled between 1995 and 2012 are at risk following the breach of Iowa State University's network server.

University says they found no evidence that any of the financial information of students or any others files were accessed by the intruders.

Officials at Iowa State University believe the attackers who breached the five departmental servers were trying to use the computing power of the servers to generate virtual currency Bitcoins.

Even though the personal information was not the intended target, the University urges affected students to monitor their financial reports.
