Marks of 55 Bangalore University students tampered with after portal security breach
Bengaluru: The marks of 55 students of Bangalore University (BU) were found to be tampered with in the Unified University and College Management System (UUCMS), after the login ID and password of the registrar (evaluation) were breached. The first-semester marks of Bachelor of Computer Applications (BCA) students from two private colleges in the city, as well as those from the Jnanabharati campus of the university, were found to be tampered with. Curiously, many of the students had already passed the exam, and the addition of one or two marks didn't make a difference. However, five students passed after the marks were tampered with. The changes were made in various subjects, including environmental sciences and computer architecture. "Usually, the registrar gets an OTP while changing the password (to log into UUCMS). However, in this case, the hackers were able to change the password and log in without OTP. The changes were made at night. In the morning, when I realised the password was changed, we immediately notified UUCMS. They gave a list of the students whose marks were changed," said registrar (evaluation) Srinivas Chowdappa. BU has formed an internal committee to probe the incident, and also decided to register a complaint with police. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Ductless Air Conditioners Are Selling Like Crazy [See Why] Keep Cool Click Here Undo This is not the first time UUCMS was breached. In 2024, Bengaluru North University (BNU) faced a similar issue with marks getting tampered with. The Kolar district cybercrime and narcotics control police arrested three people in this regard. "We don't know why the marks of students who passed were tampered with. Only one or two marks were added for those students, making no real impact. It could be to confuse us. We'd know only after an inquiry, though. We've made sure the new marks won't be reflected anywhere, the old marks will be retained," he said. UUCMS officials didn't respond to calls. The portal, set up after the implementation of National Education Policy 2021 in the state, manages all functions in a higher educational institution, ranging from admission, fee payment, and declaration of exam results. "With hacking of UUCMS becoming a repeat affair, it's important for the higher education department to take note of it and heighten security measures. Else, where's the credibility of the portal and sanctity of exam?" asked a college assistant professor.
