“The University of Michigan announced that it has severed its ties to the internet and cut off access to some systems after experiencing a cyberattack that began on Sunday. “
“In a message to the school’s more than 51,000 students on Monday, the school’s chief information officer Ravi Pendse said that the university on Sunday “made the intentional decision to sever our ties to the internet” after “careful evaluation of a significant security concern.” “
“Pendse warned that it may be “several days” before online services return but he noted that the outages are affecting some parts of the university more than others. No patient care at Michigan Medicine was disrupted by the cyberattack and classes are continuing, for example. “
