Oxford County has confirmed it was the target of a cybersecurity incident last week, following the initial report shared on Monday.
Officials say as soon as unexpected activity was detected, IT staff worked to block further unauthorized access and brought in third-party cybersecurity experts to contain and investigate the breach.
All county systems are now operating normally, with no changes to public services. The County says it remains focused on determining whether any information was compromised and is introducing new security measures as needed.
Warden Marcus Ryan says while municipalities are frequent targets of cyberattacks, Oxford County remains committed to keeping residents informed as the investigation continues, which may take months.
