The City of Victorville, California, has issued a notification regarding a cybersecurity incident that potentially affects the personal information of its residents.

The city identified suspicious activity within its network and immediately took action to secure the system, enlisting a cybersecurity firm to conduct a thorough investigation.

The investigation revealed that an unauthorized actor gained access to certain files between August 12, 2023, and September 26, 2023.

Enrollment in this program will not adversely affect residents’ credit scores, and instructions for signing up are included in the notification.

Residents are urged to remain vigilant by regularly reviewing their account statements and credit reports for any unauthorized activity. The city encourages those affected to take advantage of the complimentary identity protection services and to consult the enclosed materials for further information on identity theft prevention.
