GUILDERLAND, N.Y. (AP) — An Albany-area school district is investigating a malware attack that forced students in grades 7 through 12 into all-remote learning on Monday, district officials announced.

Officials at the Guilderland Central School District said on the district's website that specialists investigating “technical interruptions” that happened last Thursday “have determined that the district was the victim of a cyber attack by a threat actor group which used malware to encrypt certain systems throughout the district.”
