New Jersey county police department confirms ransomware attack, unrelated to attack on prosecutor’s office

Posted on April 10, 2023 by Dissent

Jonathan Greig reports:

The police department in Camden County, New Jersey confirmed that it was hit with a ransomware attack last month and is still investigating the incident.

A spokesperson for the department — which serves the county’s 523,000 residents — told Recorded Future News that the ransomware attack took place on March 13. Camden County borders Philadelphia to its northwest.

The county prosecutor’s office was also hit in March, but according to statements made to New Jersey 101.5, there was no connection between the attacks.  Police Spokesman Dan Keashen told New Jersey 101.5 that the two departments do not share servers or networks.

Ok, any *people* have access to both, though?  Any common third party vendor?  Let’s not be so quick to say unconnected, maybe?
