Shoreline College website hacked; officials investigating

Posted on March 23, 2023 by Dissent

Monica Velez reports:

A ransomware attack has forced the majority of Shoreline Community College students and staff to transition to remote work until further notice, officials confirmed Thursday.

Local and federal officials are investigating. Although Shoreline’s campus remains open, the website is down and Wi-Fi on campus is inaccessible. The Parent Child Center remains open.

Classes and exams will be held in person when possible, officials said.
