Attackers claim to have taken over 240 million records tied to students, teachers, and staff containing names, email addresses, enrolled courses, and private messages. If true, evidence suggests the dataset spans 15,000 institutions in North America, Europe, and Asia. At this time little else has been said, but attackers have also been causing downtime on the platform itself, disrupting students as finals are right around the corner.\n\nInstructure confirms data breach, ShinyHunters claims attackEducational tech giant Instructure has confirmed that data was stolen in a cyberattack, with the ShinyHunters extortion gang claiming responsibility.BleepingComputerLawrence Abrams\n\n## Trellix discloses data breach after source code repository hack\n\nTrellix is a cybersecurity firm formed after the 2021 merger of McAfee and FireEye.

While Vimeo still hasn't officially confirmed how many victims this attack impacted, Have I Been Pwned says it uploaded the email addresses of 119,200 people. Since HIBP analyzes data before sharing, this means it's possible that there were more victims than that but only that many were new email addresses. Vimeo says that credentials and financial information were not impacted.\n\nVimeo data breach exposes personal information of 119,000 peopleThe ShinyHunters extortion gang stole personal information belonging to over 119,000 people after hacking the Vimeo online video platform in April, according to data breach notification service Have I Been Pwned.BleepingComputerSergiu Gatlan",
