3-27-23 hackers attack wisconsin court system computer network

MADISON, Wis. (AP) — Hackers are attacking the Wisconsin court system’s computer network. The state court system said in a statement Thursday a cyberattack began early last week. The statement did not say when and court system spokesperson Tom Sheehan didn’t immediately respond to a follow-up email. Network users may have experienced intermittent service or slower than usual response times from online services. Wisconsin Supreme Court Chief Justice Annette Ziegler said in the statement that the attack has not resulted in the breach of any data and court operations continue as usual statewide. Director of State Courts Randy Koschnick said the court system has taken effective counter measures but did not elaborate. It was unclear if the attack was still ongoing.
