The Los Angeles County Superior Court was hit with a ransomware attack that officials say does not appear related to the faulty CrowdStrike update that sparked a global technology outage.
The Los Angeles County Superior Court system was hit by a ransomware attack Friday morning, prompting officials to disable network systems through at least the weekend. The attack does not appear related to the faulty CrowdStrike update that sparked a global technology outage Friday, officials said in a statement.
Law enforcement is investigating the attack on the court and so far there's 'no evidence of court user’s data being compromised,' the statement said. After discovering the attack, the court's 'network systems' were disabled to minimize the damage, according to the statement. Those systems are expected to be offline through at least the weekend to address the issue. Officials did not specify which 'network systems' had been disabled.
