LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) -- The Jefferson County Clerk's Office is discussing whether or not some data was lost during a ransomware attack last month.
The Russian cyberattack happened on July 22 and caused branches of the clerk's office to be closed for nearly a week.
Monday, the clerk's office said it has received a forensics report on the attack and they are "consulting with the authorities about reports that some of our data may have been lost."
There's no word yet on what kind of information may be involved, but the clerk's office said it is still reviewing the information.
