🚨 Cybersecurity Alert 🚨
The recent reported hack of Canvas, a widely used learning platform was hacked by ShinyHunters, and is a stark reminder that no one is immune from cyberattacks — from everyday users to major institutions.

✅ Implementing appropriate, up-to-date security measures
✅ Being vigilant about data sharing, downloads, and email attachments
✅ Paying close attention to details in your daily online activities
A little extra caution goes a long way in keeping your data safe and protecting your organization.
