Kansas State University has been swept up in a nationwide cybersecurity attack affecting approximately 8,800 educational institutions.
Canvas, the college’s learning management system, is currently inoperable. The hackers claiming responsibility demand payment, or they say they’ll leak all information on the site.
In a message sent around 4 p.m. Thursday to students and staff, K-State officials said that Instructure, the parent company of Canvas, notified them of the issue.
