Perth College was forced to shut down its campus following a cyber attack.
Hackers are believed to have targeted the University of the Highlands and Islands (UHI) – the college’s parent institution – on Sunday night.
The incident caused widespread disruption to all 13 sites across its network of colleges and research institutions.
Bosses said IT engineers spent most of Monday working to “isolate and minimise” the impact. The source of the attack is not known, but the university does not believe personal data has been affected.
