Ataque cibernético interrompe a plataforma Canvas durante exames finais nos EUA

Um ataque de ransomware atingiu a plataforma de ensino Canvas na quinta-feira, forçando escolas e faculdades em todos os EUA a adiar ou reprogramar os exames finais. A interrupção ocorreu justamente quando os alunos se preparavam para as provas de fim de ano.

A Instructure, empresa controladora do Canvas, retirou a plataforma do ar após detectar atividade não autorizada em sua rede. O mesmo agente de ameaça havia realizado uma violação de dados divulgada na semana anterior. Os dados acessados incluíram nomes de usuário, endereços de e-mail, números de identificação de estudantes e mensagens da plataforma, embora a empresa tenha relatado não haver evidências de que senhas ou detalhes financeiros estivessem envolvidos.
