University of Nottingham has confirmed a major breach of its Campus Solutions system, with ShinyHunters claiming responsibility. Around 454,600 students and alumni were reportedly affected, with exposed data including names, emails, addresses, phone numbers, passport numbers, ethnicity/disability information, academic enrolment records, and fee/payment details. The suspected attack vector is Oracle PeopleSoft, a platform widely used by universities for student records and administration. Nottingham says it detected the incident on June 9, 2026, took systems offline, notified affected users, reported it to the ICO and Action Fraud, and launched a forensic investigation.
