Cybersecurity incidents disrupt services in Kentucky, Ohio

The clerk’s office, responsible for issuing vehicle and voter registrations, professional licenses and housing deeds, told Spectrum News 1, which first reported the cyberattack, its data appears not to have been compromised. Its website was inaccessible on Wednesday.

Jefferson County isn’t the only locality managing IT issues.

Columbus, Ohio, Mayor Andrew Ginther on Tuesday told WBNS that a cybersecurity incident last Thursday forced the technology department to disconnect the city’s network from the internet. Disrupted services include the city’s 911 system. Ginther said 911 and 311 dispatch centers are still “operational,” but have been forced to revert to paper processes.
