“The Ashtabula County Recorder’s Office has been forced to return to old methods after a cyber attack on a service used by the office. County Recorder Barbara Schaab said she was informed that a vendor her office uses is down due to a cyber attack that took place on Christmas. “
“County Recorder Barbara Schaab said she was informed that a vendor her office uses is down due to a cyber attack that took place on Christmas. “So my services, as far as any digital application, is out of service until they can isolate the threat,” Schaab said. “In an effort to keep commerce and the economy running, we are receiving documents,” Schaab said. “And what that means is, we are sequentially accepting documents, we are painstakingly numbering them, keeping them in the correct order, logging them in. We have been working with the title agencies that are using this, so that we can best serve them, to keep business running.” “
“Title examiners will be allowed to look at daily log-in sheets, then request to see corresponding documents, so they will know whether or not to proceed, she said. She said there were a number of documents that were going to be brought to her office last Friday, but the weather caused the county offices to be closed, so there were a number of documents waiting to be submitted. “
