Today I logged in to complete the last of my assignments in a college course and saw this:
So apparently Canvas’s parent group Instructure got hacked by a cybercriminal group called ShinyHunters and now the whole system is down. I wasn’t there when the message by the attackers were displayed, but for reference you can find it in Reddit posts and such ¹,². Now, basically all of us students and also the professors are at the mercy of these hackers.
I’m lucky to have submitted my english final 1 week early, but I have another course with a few assignments left…it’s due tomorrow too. Now what ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ðŸ¥€ðŸ¥€
the fact that I still have my old account from America and still get showed this basically tells me that Minnesota is also feeling it and I was going to remove my account as well, I might be cooked ngl
SO THAT’S WHY ITS DOWN??? I HAVE ASSIGNMENTS DUE TODAY oh god I’m cooked I’m happy I can say that I couldn’t do my assignments bcuz Canvas is down, but at the same time I’m stressing about if something will happen to my stuff on there
