Orleans Parish Sheriff's Office
A ransomware attack compromised computers at the Orleans Parish Sheriff's Office. Officials initially said jail security computers were unaffected. Later reporting documented prolonged loss of access to the public criminal case lookup tool, while Qilin claimed responsibility for the attack.
More than a dozen computers were compromised, according to the agency. September 16 reporting said Docket Master had been unavailable for over ten days. The cited reports do not establish that jail security systems were disabled.
