Okanogan County government, including Public Health, has experienced a cyber-attack on its computer infrastructure

Posted

Okanogan - Okanogan County government, including Public Health, has experienced a cyber-attack on its computer infrastructure. The system is down which will affect the service we provide to our community. The attack is also effecting our phone system and emails.

We have a specialized team working with our Central Services professionals to get the system back up and running as soon as possible. Offices will be open but will be very limited in the services they can provide. We will provide updates by 5:00pm daily via the Okanogan County Alerts. At this time, we do not have a projected date for the computer system to be fully operational.

Due to those reduced services, we will be closing the 3rd Street entrance to the Courthouse. Anyone needing Courthouse access, please use the 4th Street entrance.

If anyone is experiencing difficulties reaching an office due to phone issues, please call our County Call Center at:

(509) 422-2420

(509) 422-2422

For jurors who were scheduled to call in this week for jury duty in either Superior Court or District Court, you are excused.

If anyone is not currently signed up for the Okanogan County Alerts, please visit www.okanoganDEM.org to get signed up.

For those needing emergency services, 911 has not been effected. For non-emergencies, the Sheriff’s Office Dispatch can be reached at:

(509) 422-7119

(509) 422-6968

(509) 422-6967
