Support for teachers following the security incident in Canvas

NEWS Due to the security incident in Canvas, the system was temporarily shut down. As of Monday, 11 May at 13:00, Canvas is open for use again.

Text: Ellen Säll

Reporting of results to Ladok via Canvas was affected during the intrusion. The university can now confirm that result reporting to Ladok is up and running again, and all functions in Canvas are therefore operating normally.

The university has created a shared contact point via Infocenter to handle general questions regarding the security incident. Questions from teachers concerning teaching, examination and evaluation will be referred to UPL, and we are prepared to assist you.

Please contact us at upl@umu.se
