Other people's courses appearing in Review?
Is anyone else seeing other people's courses appearing in their Review site?
Every time I return to my review page I see a new course from another author. The course disappears on refresh, but then when I return I see a different one from someone else.
This has been happening on and off for the last few hours, just curious if it's just me.

Yeah! I can open them which is terrifying! I've already grabbed a few screenshots at this point.

That just happened to me too! I left a comment for the person warning them they should delete that version and publish a new one so I (and anyone else) lose access. The course is gone from my feed but the link still works because it's static.
This is such a MAJOR breach of security, I might have to stop using this tool entirely to avoid being sued for a breach of NDA. I'm pretty upset.- TraciCommunity Member
I found one of the course owners on LinkedIn and let her know! So crazy that this is happening!

This isn't a tiny bug, this is a massive security and intellectual property issue. Especially because the links are static (i.e. once someone knows the URL they can still gain access even after it's removed from the homepage.) So now I have no idea which of my thousands of courses might have a security breach.

Agree, that this is totally unacceptable. Can Articulate please advise who has been affected by this issue and an ETA on when it will be resolved? Thanks

Would courses/modules that have been password protected in Review links be viewable by others OR would they have been asked for a password? Please provide an update ASAP. Thanks

I think the best course of action is for Articulate to temporary shut down Review 360 until this matter is resolved. As it is a huge breach of privacy.
Hi Everyone,
We've resolved the issue and are working to determine who was impacted. We will update you when we have more information.Password protected content in Review 360 remained protected by the password during this incident.

Thanks for the reply. What has been put in place to ensure that this doesn't happen again?
