The Florida Department of Health experienced temporary outages in its online system due to a potential cyber attack, as reported on Wednesday. A hacker group claimed responsibility for breaching the agency’s computer system, Vital Statistics, which handles vital records such as marriage, divorce, birth, and death certificates. The Department is currently working with law enforcement and other relevant stakeholders to address the situation. They reassured that most of the Department’s systems and services are still operational with no disruptions.
As per standard practice, the Department will notify any affected parties once a comprehensive assessment of the cyber attack is completed. While no further details were provided in the statement released by the FDOH, they continue to investigate the incident and ensure the security of their online systems.
