The attack took down part of the county’s systems, including the public health department, the Okanogan County Sheriff’s Office announced Jan. 18 on Facebook. In addition to the computer infrastructure, the cyberattack also affected the county’s phone and email services.
The sheriff’s office said a team is working to restore the system, but the government does not have a projected date for when it will be back to full operations. Offices have remained open but are limited in the services they can provide, according to the report.
