Louisiana Declares Emergency After Crippling Malware Attacks: - Mad-Architect - 07-26-2019                      Louisiana has declared a state of emergency, after a series of crippling malware attacks that shut down school systems in three parishes. This has been started by Gov. John Bel Edwards, and this is only the latest in a long series of ransomware attacks that have hit the states in recent months.               The logic behind this move, is that the declaration will allow cyber-security from the National Guard and other departments and organizations to come forward and help prevent further data loss.               Earlier this week, a fourth school system was also affected, but not to the extent of the others.              Original article can be found here.             That was the news folks, have a good day, and stay safe out there.             ---Mad-Architect
