The University of Rwanda experienced a significant data breach in January 2025 affecting approximately 147 thousand students. The incident involved the unauthorized exposure of sensitive academic and personal records from the countrys primary public higher education institution. Leaked information includes student contact details, physical addresses, and unique identification numbers alongside sponsorship data. The breach represents a major privacy concern for the Rwandan academic community as it exposes vulnerable student demographics to potential phishing and identity theft.
