Rutgers CyberDefence Budget Return

The Issue

Rutgers University allegedly spent "$3 million to better protect its computer networks after four attacks during the past school year. That upgrade was the primary reason Rutgers raised tuition and fees by approx 2.3% for the 2015-16 academic school year." -NJ.com

Instead of tackling the suspected cause of the DDoS attacks known as the individual or group "ExFocus", Rutgers' computer network upgrade has once again failed against similar attacks, yet again crippling the network infrastructure. As a result, a full or partial refund should be in order for the "upgrade" that was made to protect not just our identities, but also preserve the data service that we rightfully pay for. We need your help to reach out to President Barchi and all other affiliates to get the money we spent back into our pockets.
