The Université de Moncton’s website was offline for 10 days following a cyber incident flagged by the institution’s Cyber Intrusion Detection system on October 14. UMoncton’s VP of Administration and Human Resources Gabriel Cormier told CTV News that there is currently no indication that personal or sensitive data was compromised by the incident. The university is continuing to assess the situation and has hired an external company to assist with the investigation. Cormier added that as UMoncton restores the website, it will also upgrade its security systems in line with best practices.
