The author describes the alleged April 2026 Canvas breach by ShinyHunters (GOLD CRYSTAL) that reportedly exfiltrated 3.65 TB of data affecting thousands of organizations, warns of likely follow-on phishing/vishing and impersonation campaigns targeting schools, students, and parents, and recommends measures such as phishing-resistant authentication (passkeys/hardware keys), stricter helpdesk identity verification, increased awareness training, monitoring for suspicious identity activity, and proactive community communication.
