Instructure Thwarts ShinyHunters Data Leak with Agreement
Instructure has taken swift action to protect its community by reaching an agreement with the ShinyHunters extortion group, successfully retrieving stolen data and ensuring its destruction. This move puts the minds of its 30 million users at ease, prioritizing their security and well-being.

Speed and assurance of restoration have become just as crucial as early detection in incident response.
