If they didn't have enough problems...
Trident is sending warning notices out to all past and present students that someone tried (unsuccessfully, they say) to hack their database.
Nobody loves you when you're down and out.....but they will try to hack your database.

Quote:On November 29, 2011, we detected an unsuccessful attempt by an unidentified person to access one of our databases contining username and passwords for approximately 81,000 current and former student accounts. No other information was contained in that database. Trident University permanently removed the database from the network and engaged an external forensic team to assess the nature of the incident.
Our investigation did not find any evidence that someone successfully obtained access to the database. Based on a review of the available log-in history for November and December 2011, we have found no unusual log-in activity to indicate that student accounts were inappropriately accessed.
