So the Sheriff dept doesn’t use computers between 4:30 and 8:00?

I’m sure the Orleans Parish Sheriff’s IT department will be right on it

They're probably still running on XP.

How could one determine that the sheriff's office is under cyber attack? The New Orleans' Sheriff's office has the shittiest, slowest website on the internet.

Or the other way around (however incompetent (and yet believable) that may be)...
Cyberattacker to the Sheriff's Office at 4:30 a.m.: "Pay us or else."
Sheriff's Office 3.5 hours later: "Hey, I think we might have a problem here."

Hell, I'm more surprised they figured it out as early as 8:00 am than anything.

To be fair, they probably don’t use them between 8 and 430, either…

I wonder if they were able to handle the Sheriff sales today.

I miss the simplicity of XP

At least they reported the attack somewhat timely and didn’t wait months like the DMV.

Was the door to the office locked?

I guess the inmates figured out how to steal the cache and jump through the open Windows.
