The university's incident website blocks search engines from listing the site, making it more difficult for affected individuals to find the website in search results.

At the time of writing, the TTUHSC’s security incident website contains “noindex” code, which tells search engines to ignore the page, making it more difficult for affected individuals to find the website in search results. As per Bleeping Computer, the Interlock ransomware group claimed responsibility for the cyberattack. In a post on its dark web leak site, seen by TechCrunch, the gang claims to have published 2.1 million files stolen from TTUHSC, totaling 2.6 terabytes of data.
