=> ↺ Trinidad and Tobago facing outages after cyberattack
Trinidad and Tobago’s justice department is dealing with a cyberattack that has impacted the ministry’s operations.
The island nation of more than 1.4 million people announced on Friday that its Ministry of Digital Transformation discovered a cyberattack targeting the country’s Office of the Attorney General and Ministry of Legal Affairs (AGLA) in recent days.
More than three-quarters of a million people may have had their social security numbers stolen in a data breach at Lansing Community College in late 2022 and early 2023, according to a law firm that says it’s investigating the incident.
The community college notified “757,832 employees, students and vendors that their personal information may have been accessed or acquired by an unknown unauthorized person,” Federman & Sherwood, a law firm with offices in Texas and Oklahoma, said in a statement posted on its website.

Their credit union also advised them their account had been compromised.
The couple are among approximately 181,000 people whose information was exposed in a February data breach at Great Valley Cardiology and Scranton Cardiovascular Physician Services, LLC in Scranton, which are part of the Commonwealth Health Physician Network.
