The Appalaches school board in Thetford-Mines and La Rose des Vents, a support group for cancer patients in Sherbrooke, suffered a cyber attack in September 2016.
Teachers at the Appalachian School Board were no longer able to access their online papers or online course materials.
In order to recover access to their data, hackers demanded a $20,000 ransom payment from them.
