As you may be aware, the Canvas Learning Management System is currently experiencing an outage due to a cybersecurity incident targeting Instructure, the parent company of Canvas. This incident is not isolated to the University of Florida and is affecting more than 8,000 educational institutions worldwide. UF leadership is aware of the situation and is monitoring it. If you are enrolled for Summer A, Summer C or Summer A/C, all of which begin Monday, May 11, please look for communications from your instructors regarding how classes will be conducted if Canvas is still unavailable on Monday. If you need further assistance, you may contact the UF Help Desk at (352) 392-HELP (4357) or helpdesk@ufl.edu. In addition, be alert for phishing attempts or unexpected messages that appear to be from Canvas or other university systems.
