Rockhurst University is being sued by an employee after her personal information was leaked to hackers. Alexandria Stobbe was one of 1,200 university employees to have her information stolen after a hacker posed as an administrator and emailed employees requesting their W-2 information. Stobbe is suing the university for being reckless when it failed to provide proper methods and security to protect its employee's data. The case could open the door for more employee Internet security cases if the university is found to be at fault.
