US lawmakers demand answers from Instructure after Canvas data breaches

U.S. House lawmakers are demanding representatives from Instructure, the twice-hacked education software maker, testify about the company’s response to cyberattacks that allowed hackers to steal the personal data of millions of students worldwide. The House Homeland Security Committee is investigating the hacks and data breach as it has jurisdiction over government activities relating to homeland security, the committee’s chair, Representative Andrew Garbarino, wrote in a letter to Instructure chief executive Steve Daly. U.S. cybersecurity agency CISA has been called in to help with the incident.
