It’s been more than a week since Suffolk County discovered its computer networks were hacked, but while some county services are still offline, the hackers are upping the ante.
According to the online message, hackers say they have thousands of files taken from county court records, the Sheriff’s Office, contracts and the personal data of citizens as well as county employees.
While county officials say no ransom request has been received, they continue to evaluate the integrity of the system and so far it appears the network infrastructure is intact. Experts argue the groups could be funding shady enterprises and that the county should just focus on securing their networks for the future.
