Here's what we know about the hack on one of the city's websites and the group claiming responsibility.
According to Gunn, officials were informed about 4 p.m. Friday by a state agency — the Texas Department of Information Resources — about a post from a group that claimed to have gained access to the city’s data.
As of Saturday, officials said they do not believe any other systems were accessed or any other evidence of sensitive data, such as social security numbers, credit card or banking information was accessed or released. “If you don’t have two-factor authentication on these things or multifactor authentication, that’s all I need is that username and password,” Jess Parnell, vice president of security operations with Virginia-based cybersecurity company Centripetal Networks, said in May. “It’s unfortunate, but I only have to be right one out of like thousands of user accounts and they’re in.”
