Sad to see this happening, municipalities have been warned to protect critical infrastructure from cyber terrorism. Newburgh has cutback on important services, and departments,i.e, IT, fire, police. Look what has, and is happening. Crime rampant, and those fires that cost multiple people their residences. All that savings in finance for what? To pay it back in ransom to hackers. The city needs to tell the public how much money is spent on outside vendors to do what was previously done in-house. Namely, legal services. The city pays outside firms countless dollars for contract negotiations, workman's compensation matters, and internal fruitless investigations on employees for personnel matters that offend management. Basically witch hunts. They are so worried about micro managing the department heads, that this aspect of the game totally blindsided them, and shut the city down, literally. FBI, State officials are involved. Hope the hackers release incriminating evidence on city officials. Then maybe we can have transparency. Something of this magnitude cannot go without discussion on a public level. Expect when this is resolved, those outside agencies who are helping to mitigate the situation, will have a press release.
