Logically Leads National Media Coverage and Cybersecurity Response Commentary Following Canvas Data Breach
National MSSP provided expert cybersecurity guidance across major U.S. media outlets as schools and universities navigated operational disruption and elevated cyber risk following the Canvas platform breach.
DUBLIN, Ohio, May 11, 2026 — Logically, a national managed security services provider (MSSP) and IT solutions partner, played a prominent role in the national media response surrounding the recent Canvas cybersecurity breach that impacted schools and universities during one of the most critical periods of the academic year.
As educational institutions across the country evaluated potential exposure, service disruption, and operational risk during final exams, Logically cybersecurity experts delivered real-time analysis, incident response guidance, and practical recommendations across multiple television markets and nationally syndicated digital platforms.
Coverage included expert commentary featured by:
- ABC11 Raleigh, where our expert Eric Bordeau, Virtual Chief Information Officer at Logically emphasized the growing reality of data exposure and cyber risk facing organizations and individuals alike.
“This is part of our everyday lives now, that we just have to operate under the assumption that your information is out there, and people are probably going to get their hands on it one day,” said Eric Bordeau, Virtual Chief Information Officer at Logically.
- FOX 13 Tampa, discussing how threat actors targeted the Canvas platform during finals week, increasing operational disruption for students and institutions.
“Which is honestly the worst possible timing. It’s not just a tech outage, but it disrupted grades, assignments, exams, and student communication,” said Patrick Jones, Executive Vice President of Sales at Logically.
Patrick Jones noted that the attack highlights how operational disruption and cybersecurity risk increasingly converge when critical platforms are targeted.
“Frankly, this needs to be a warning shot,” Jones said.
He also emphasized the importance of employee cybersecurity awareness as phishing, fraudulent calls, and malicious text messages continue to be the leading attack vectors targeting organizations.
