Canvas Access Interruption

5/7/2026 5:40PM

MSJC is aware of malicious/extortion-style messaging that has appeared in Canvas environments at institutions across the country. At this time, we are actively monitoring the situation and coordinating with
appropriate professionals.

At present, there is no indication that our network or systems have been compromised. However, out of an abundance of caution, we are asking all students and employees to exercise heightened awareness while using Canvas.

Please do the following immediately:
• Do not click any unfamiliar links or download files contained in suspicious Canvas messages or announcements.
• Do not respond to ANY messages, if encountered.
• Report all suspicious activity, screenshots, or unusual Canvas behavior immediately to support@msjc.edu.
Additional updates and guidance will be communicated once available, and any inquiries or questions should be directed to support@msjc.edu.

Thank you for your cooperation.
