Hackers breach Instructure, claim 280M records from 9,000 schools

ShinyHunters claims a breach of Instructure's Canvas LMS, allegedly exfiltrating 280 million records across 8,809 institutions, exposing names, emails, student IDs, and messages. A May 12 leak deadline adds urgency. Security teams at K-12 and higher-ed institutions using Canvas should audit access logs and prepare incident response immediately.
