The town’s municipal computer network is back up and running after a cyberattack one week ago that has been linked to Russian criminals and a global ransomware group, the town manager said Tuesday.
Logically, a national information technology provider based in Portland, brought down the town’s network around 1 p.m. on June 8 after it detected a cyberattack, Town Manager Peter Joseph said. While the move successfully contained the attack, it shut down phone and online communications and disrupted municipal services across every department.
