Two weeks after Alabama’s third-largest school system’s network was shut down over a ransomware attack, Jefferson County schools are continuing with classes, but don’t have a sure timeline for returning to normal — for operational internet at school.
“We’re having school, and we’re having school effectively. That’s the most important thing,” Gonsoulin said., ransomware is a form of malware designed to encrypt files on a device, rendering any files and the systems that rely on them unusable. Malicious actors then demand ransom in exchange for decryption.
Gonsoulin asked employees to be patient while the district recovers from the attack, saying that recovery will happen in phases. “Half of the schools have all phones completely restored,” the spokesperson said. “And all schools have at least some phones working.” “We’ve got valuable data,” Susan Poling, head of the Alabama Leadership in Educational Technology, told lawmakers last month, “personal data on students in the state of Alabama and a lot of data on their parents and all the employees.”
