The Upper Canada District School Board continues to be affected by a January 5 cyber attack.
“We are still experiencing disruptions to services across all of our schools and working around the clock to safely restore access and assess the impact of this cyber incident. These disruptions are technological in nature and do not pose any risk to student safety. Our schools will remain open and are operating in a non-digital environment – which is proving to be a learning opportunity for everyone,” says the board.
The board had earlier said, “Police have been contacted and we are actively working with trusted experts to assess the impact and restore services,” says the board. “Our schools will remain open and classes will continue as usual, however our schools will remain offline until we are able to safely restore network access. At this time, there is no indication that any personal data has been compromised.”
