Oxford University has launched a probe into a suspected breach of laboratory researching COVID-19. Alex Holden, founder of Wisconsin-based Hold Security claimed that the Division of Structural Biology, known as Strubi, was hacked in mid-February. "There has been no impact on any clinical research, as this is not conducted in the affected area,” an Oxford spokesman said. Oxford is working with the National Cyber Security Centre.
