Canvas is a Security Nightmare. New to my University, the program was rolled out without piloting with students and staff. Too many glitches to mention, but biggest is security. The program is interrupted by Norton Anti-Virus... not because Norton is bad, but because of the scripts being used in the open source platform. Students have had to dump their security software in favor of one that doesn't catch Canvas' problems. If the student logs in to the app, but doesn't log out - the app stays open and logged in (even when shut down). If the student LOGS OUT of the app, and closes the window, the next time they access the program - it is ALREADY LOGGED IN. This is supposed to be the largest / most successful LMS in the world??? Anyone see a cybersecurity target?
