N. St. Paul, Minn., Cyber Attack Related to Phishing Email

Government Technology

(TNS) — Public safety and essential city services continue to operate in North St. Paul as the city investigates a recent cyber attack on the city’s Police Department.

The breach was related to a phishing email sent to one business email account within the North St. Paul Police Department, said city spokeswoman Ava Griemert.

The attack was contained to a single account. There has been no impact outside of the one affected account, Griemert said.

On Monday, the City Council voted to hire a law firm to provide legal services and approved a contract with a cybersecurity company to conduct an investigation after what is being called a “business email compromise” came to light.
