What we know about the cyberattack on the city of Fort Worth

The city of Fort Worth is investigating the scope of an attack on its systems after one of its websites was hacked, officials said Saturday.

Kevin Gunn, the city’s chief technology officer, said hackers gained access to a municipal website that facilitates maintenance work orders for the city’s transportation, public works, parks and recreation and property management departments. He said the data did not come from the city’s “public-facing intranet website.”

Gunn said in a briefing that officials have found “no indication that there has been sensitive information” released. Officials attributed the attack to a threat actor group, known as SiegedSec.
