Cyberattack disables California 911 calls
The city of Suisun in California was subjected to a cyberattack that disrupted its digital systems, leading to a temporary suspension of emergency call reception and routing through 911. The attack was initiated by malicious software early Friday morning, prompting the city to shut down its entire computer network to preserve digital evidence and contain the spread. Despite this, police and fire services continued their operations through a Solano County communications center. Authorities declared a state of emergency and relied on cooperation with the FBI and the Department of Homeland Security to identify the source of the breach, with the responsible party and method of attack not yet disclosed.
