Overview

• Kansas courts' computer systems are starting to come back online, two months after a foreign cyberattack forced officials to shut it down.
• The case management systems for district courts in 28 of the state’s 105 counties are expected to be back online by Monday, with others following by the end of the week.
• The courts have also restored systems that allow people to apply for marriage licenses online and file electronic requests for orders to protect them from abuse, stalking and human trafficking.
• Judicial branch officials have not publicly disclosed the hackers’ demands, whether a ransom was paid or how much the state has spent in restoring judicial branch systems.
• The long outage has forced courts in the affected counties to return to having documents filed on paper.
