A 29 year-old man was arrested last week for allegedly hacking into more than 1,000 email accounts at two US universities. According to the FBI indictment, Jonathan Powell gained entry by exploiting weaknesses in how the systems reset passwords. Powell targeted 75 US schools, but his main targets were Pace University in New York and a university in Pennsylvania that was not identified.
