“The municipal government in Macon-Bibb County, Georgia, located 85 miles southeast of Atlanta, suffered a cyberattack over the weekend.“
“County officials released a notice that they took the government network offline upon discovery of the attack. As of Monday, government offices could still not reliably access their email accounts or landline phones. “
“The county government, which oversees a population of roughly 150,000 residents, did not disclose whether this cyberattack is a ransomware attack, similar to last week’s cyberattack on Wichita, Kansas, which also partially shut down its computer network as a containment measure. “
