Government "solves" problems of the Portal das matriculas with automatic renewals. Computer attack at the source of the failures

The decision has just been communicated by the Government, which indicates that the renewals of enrollment for the 2., 3., 4., 6., 8., 9., 11. and 12. years start to be processed automatically . The exception is the transfer of the educational establishment, and the enrollments in the 5th, 7th and 10th year, which mark changes in the cycle.

In the last few days, there have been many complaints from guardians who tried unsuccessfully to renew the enrollment of their children and students, which led to the postponement of the deadline for enrollment in the various teaching cycles.

With this decision, only the beginning years of the teaching cycle, that is, the 5th, 7th and 10th year, as well as the transfers, will continue to be made through the Portal das matrulas.

The Government assumes that this change of procedure "comes to ease the flow of the Portal das Matrulas". This is despite "several days in which the 100 thousand daily enrollments were exceeded, and about 70% of the total have already been concluded". "This procedure eases the flow of the Portal das Matrulas and, therefore, can improve the accessibility of the page, for those who have to register through this route", he writes in a statement.

Recognized problems are also recognized. "In addition to the flow of accesses, associated with pages linked to the Portal das Matrulas, which were below, there were highly complex computer attacks, which are being monitored by the National Cyber ​​Security Center, and which caused serious blockages in the system", he says. the same statement.

Enrollments for preschoolers and 1st year ended today and yesterday the Office of the Ministry of Education was reporting an extraordinary influx of accesses, despite 94% of students in these years already enrolled. And he noticed that those who were unable to complete the online application within the scheduled deadline could do it in person, at the school office. For enrollment renewals for students attending the 2nd to 12th grade, the term only ends on July 12th, enrollment being open from June 26th.
