County Executive Steuart Pittman shared the following update on the ongoing cyber incident:
“We appreciate the public’s patience and understanding as Anne Arundel County continues working to recover from the cyber incident affecting County government IT services.
“We have made progress internally with securing our systems and I want to thank our Office of Information Technology and our county staff for the hard work they have done to restore and maintain services. Most County services remain available, though some continue to operate under temporary manual processes.
“Once again, we will provide more information on what occurred, which operations were affected, and the steps we are taking to strengthen our cybersecurity once it is appropriate. In the meantime, our priority is restoring services in an orderly and secure manner.
“The public can visit aacounty.org/CyberIncident for updates, department operational statuses, and to view a list of alternative payment methods for county-specific bills and fees. The County will continue to make accommodations as appropriate for any late payments resulting from system disruptions.”
