Education technology company Instructure has confirmed a data breach caused by the hacking group ShinyHunters, which stole private information including students' names, email addresses, and messages between teachers and students. The breach reportedly affects nearly 9,000 schools worldwide and potentially exposes data of 275 million people, including students, teachers, and staff. ShinyHunters is known for targeting educational institutions and cloud database companies, demanding ransom to prevent public data leaks. Instructure has restored some services like its Canvas platform and is updating customers on the situation, but details on the full impact remain limited as investigations continue.
