Nothing wrong with our systems, says council leader in debate over cyber attack

REDCAR and Cleveland Council leader Mary Lanigan has said there was “nothing wrong” with the council’s IT security during a further debate over a catastrophic cyber attack. Responding to questions about the council’s cyber defences, Cllr Lanigan said: “There was nothing wrong with our systems – this was a foreign attack that came into Redcar and Cleveland. “It had a ransom attached which we did not pay.” Councillors say they are confident conditions attached to the payment of a £3.6m Government grant intended to help with the costs of the cyber attack which hit the local authority in February last year will be met.
