Attempted cyberattack leads to internet shutdown at Albany schools

“The Albany City School District’s computer systems were repeatedly attacked over the weekend, but school officials said no data was stolen. However, the technology team cut off the district’s connection to the internet on Sunday in response to the attacks. Teachers and students were advised Monday that they could not use the internet for the next three days.“

“That means teachers will have to teach without using lessons saved on a digital cloud – the most common method – and then linked through their laptops to projection screens in their classrooms. They also will not be able to send or receive emails.“

“One teacher said administrators acknowledged the ban's impact on education, but said it had to be done because of the attempted cyberattack. “
