The Record

A second New Jersey university has reported that it was the target of a weekend cyberattack that crippled Internet-based services — similar to the one that struck Rutgers University a day earlier.

Fairleigh Dickinson University experienced an attack “on one of the university’s computers from the outside of the FDU network, causing an excessive amount of traffic,” according to an alert sent Saturday to students and faculty.

Reports came in Saturday morning that the network was slow and that later it was unavailable for Internet and other services, wrote Brian Domenick, director of Information Systems and Technology, in the email.

“The attack had the effect of flooding the network; sort of like trying to fit too many cars into the Holland Tunnel all at the same time. This situation, which is known as a ‘Denial of Service,’ severely impaired the university’s network to the point of effectively shutting it down,” he stated.
