The security incident occurred when a staff member installed remote-viewing software enabling hackers to steal sensitive personal information on students, staff and even volunteers taking part in research studies.

Because cyber security protections at the university were so poor, as per the findings of an internal report revealed by Sky News earlier this month, it was impossible for the university to identify what data had been stolen.
Several sources have told Sky News this was one of multiple data breaches which have taken place at Warwick, which regularly receives more than £120m in research grants each year.
