Huntsville to spend $50k on network upgrades after being hacked
At the upcoming Huntsville Council meeting on Monday, councilors will receive a staff report regarding a proposed IT Architecture Upgrade.
The municipality says a number of systems have been impacted by the cyber security incident and require changes to support a new architecture.
The new architecture has removed features and functions that some applications used, which require the town to implement scheduled changes earlier than originally planned, which would result in a cost of $49,592 to be funded through the Corporate Information Reserve.
The applications affected include Laserfiche which holds many of the Town’s official records, a digital integration system between Laserfiche and GIS systems, and a records management system.
The meeting takes place on Monday at 5.30pm.
