The ransomware group 'Play' initially threatened to release private county documents last Friday.
Ransomware cybercrime organization known as “Play” claimed responsibility and had threatened to reveal private county documents on Nov. 3. That release was delayed.Dallas County Judge Clay Jenkins said officials were"aware of an unauthorized party posting data claimed to be taken from our systems in connection with our recent cybersecurity incident."
Jenkins had released a statement on Oct. 30 confirming that a cybersecurity attack affected the county's systems earlier that month. Jenkins said the county became aware of an incident affecting"a portion of its environment" on Oct. 19, and said the county both immediately took steps to contain it and engaged an outside cybersecurity firm to start an investigation into the breach.
We understand the concerns that such an incident may raise among our residents, employees, and partners. We want to assure everyone that we are taking this matter seriously. Our top priority is the security and privacy of all individuals associated with Dallas County. We are committed to transparency and will provide updates as more information becomes available. All updates will be posted to this webpage. We encourage you to visit it frequently. Moreover, we encourage everyone to visit the Federal Trade Commission's website at https://consumer.ftc.gov/features/identity-theft. This resource provides valuable information on how to safeguard personal information. Play is the same group that took credit for a ransomware attack on the city of Oakland, Calif.
