Description
On Friday, February 28, 2025, at approximately 2:00 a.m., the City of Mission's entire computer network suffered a cybersecurity incident such that the City's entire server and back up servers have been encrypted by ransomware. The City is unable to access any of its records at this time, including birth certificates, police reports, contracts, personnel files, to name a few. The breach has affected every single City Department. The City is thus unable to comply with the Public Information Act's requirements at this time. The City is working to regain access to its files, but in the meantime is declaring a disaster due to the breach.
