| Description | We have been recognized by the Princeton Review as one of “America’s Best Value Colleges” and a “Best in the Southeast” school. Established in 1927 as one of the first business schools for women in the nation, Webber now hosts men and women from over 48 different nations. Established in 1896 as Flora Macdonald College, St. Andrews University (a branch of Webber International University, formerly known as St. Andrews Presbyterian College) joined the Webber International University family during the summer of 2011. A traditional Liberal Arts university, students at St. Andrews major in a wide variety of fields. Each Webber campus is a traditional residential campus and features a wide array of extra-curricular activities. While most of our students are traditional undergraduates who attend classes in person, all day, play their sport all afternoon and retire to our dorms for the evening, we also offer accelerated adult completion, evening MBA, and completely online degrees. We are a results-oriented organization that expects people to meet their goals and understand that this requires hard work. However, we are a collegial, friendly workplace. We have an open-door policy. We know each other. We know our students |

RansomHouse Ransomware Group
The ‘RansomHouse’ group is a data-extortion cybercrime operation that emerged in December 2021. Unlike traditional ransomware groups, RansomHouse claims not to use ransomware and instead focuses on breaching networks through their own tools. The group employs a double-extortion model, exfiltrating data and threatening to publish it if ransom demands are not met. RansomHouse has been associated with high-profile attacks, with victims listed on its data leak site, and has targeted various organizations, including a German airline support service provider and Canada’s Saskatchewan Liquor and Gaming Authority (SLGA).
