Entire UTSA System Offline
Ever since the hack that hit UTSA, every system with our student I.D. associated is down.
That mean UTSA dining, counseling, Wellness360, anything associated with UTSA Housing, Instructure, and Canva is down.
I called Wellness360, and they told me that they are waiting for the UTSA system to get back up again.
I still have my temporary housing key and I went to the front office and they're waiting for the utsa system.
I went to the UTSA rec center and the swipe reader wasn't working. It was because of the UTSA system.
On my laptop, I was logged out of my Outlook and couldn't get back in because there is no UTSA system.
What I'm saying is that this "hack" is affecting UTSA more than they're willing to say. And UTSA will continue to be opaque, lie by omission and obfuscate what is really going to happen.
I'm a cyber major. And an IT department only pulls the plug on the central authentication server if they are trying to contain a massive threat. They shut it all down to stop the bleed.
They are calling a 3-day start delay to buy time for their digital forensics team, not because of a standard "outage."
They will continue to lie by omission until the legal department forces them to disclose the breach.
