Return To ArticleHackers have infected computers at a Georgia courts agency, demanding a ransom payment and causing officials to shut down court websites.
The Administrative Office of the Courts was offline Monday as the state government tried to contain the hack. The agency maintains court documents, provides computer applications to some local courts and publishes guidance on court operations.
All georgiacourts.gov websites were inaccessible. It’s unclear how many computers and court services were affected.
