According to the Vermont Attorney General’s office, Life University reported a data breach after they were targeted in a recent cyber security attack.

In response to the suspicious activity, Life University took action by disconnecting affected systems and bringing in external cybersecurity specialists to investigate the situation.
The investigation, while still ongoing, has confirmed that unauthorized parties gained access to portions of the university’s network containing sensitive information. After discovering this security breach, the university conducted a comprehensive review of the compromised files to identify affected individuals and the specific data that was exposed in each case.
On April 2, 2025, Life University sent out data breach letters to those individuals whose information was affected by the breach. These notification letters contain details about what specific information was compromised for each recipient and provide guidance on steps that can be taken to protect against potential identity theft or fraud.
