Cyberattack forces UT San Antonio to delay start of fall semester
UT San Antonio delayed fall semester start by three days after a weekend cyberattack was caught at the network edge before core systems.
The University of Texas at San Antonio, which serves more than 42,000 students, moved its fall semester start from August 19 to August 24 after a weekend cyberattack on its academic network. Officials said the intrusion attempt was caught at the edge of the network before reaching core systems and that no evidence of data theft has been found. The university took systems and services offline for review, causing phone system outages and password reset tool delays. The incident follows the Instructure Canvas breach during spring finals week that exposed data tied to millions of students and staff worldwide.
