Port of San Diego recovering from ransomware attack
StateScoop: The Port of San Diego reported Thursday that it is recovering from a ransomware attack that has affected its internal computer systems and some public-facing functions.
Officials are not disclosing the variety of ransomware responsible for the attack or the amount requested by the hackers responsible. Tanya Castaneda, a port spokeswoman, has confirmed that the ransom demand was denominated in bitcoin and that the port is working with the FBI, Department of Homeland Security and the U.S. Coast Guard — along with local and state law enforcement — to investigate the attack.
