Beckley, West Virginia Cyberattack

January 5, 2024
Reading Time: 1 min read
in Incidents

The city of Beckley, West Virginia, has found itself entangled in the web of a cyberattack, as disclosed in a recent notice. Officials of the city, known for its population exceeding 17,000 and central role in the Beckley metropolitan area, have acknowledged the presence of issues within their computer network. Promptly responding to the situation, they extend their apologies for any inconveniences caused and assure residents that a meticulous investigation is underway to unveil the origins, complete extent, and potential data impacts of the cyber incident.

Despite the city’s commitment to resolving the matter, crucial details remain elusive. Officials have refrained from confirming whether the cyberattack involved ransomware or if the perpetrators behind the incident have revealed their identity. Mayor Rob Rappold, while confirming the cyberattack in a statement to a local news station, has been unable to provide a definite timeline for the restoration of affected systems, adding an air of uncertainty to the ongoing situation.

This cyber incident follows a string of attacks on small governments across the United States throughout 2023, illustrating the pervasive and escalating nature of cybersecurity threats. As Beckley endeavors to navigate through the aftermath, residents and stakeholders are urged to stay vigilant and informed as the city works tirelessly to restore normalcy and bolster its defenses against such malicious activities.
