A cyberattack on the University of Copenhagen gave hackers access to information relating to 525,000 people. This includes information such as full name, Danish civil registration number (CPR), work telephone number, private telephone number, and private email address. Thus, the Technical University of Denmark, Aarhus University, and the University of Copenhagen have all been attacked within a month.

Aarhus University has set itself the ambitious goal to be “leading the way in the transition to sustainability” in its 'Strategy 2030'. Yet the university has chosen not to continue the quantitative climate targets that previously made it possible to track whether ambitions were being turned into action. A true front-runner should measure its progress, write 12 researchers and staff members from AU.

We are told that the humanities must deliver ‘solutions’. The processes of the humanities are essential to the ‘solutions’ that we can provide. Having them simulated by algorithms misses the point entirely, writes professor of English literature, Dominic Rainsford.

Aarhus University is under attack 24 hours a day, all year round. The latest weapon in hackers' arsenal is AI, which has fuelled a rise in the number, scale, and speed of attacks on the university's systems. Deputy Director of AU IT Peter Bruun Nielsen and his colleagues must defend against an enemy that is growing stronger every day.

Aarhus University has been hit by the most serious cyberattack yet, states Deputy Director of AU IT, Peter Bruun Nielsen. In the attack, the hacker exploited a vulnerability in the system and gained access to 1,700 user IDs. The attack has been stopped and the damage contained, but staff and students are urged to be extra vigilant.

In 2025, 56 students were suspended for one semester for cheating on exams. This is the highest number of suspensions in 10 years. Omnibus has examined how the scale and nature of exam cheating have changed since 2016. Cheating involving GAI has tripled each year since 2023.
