Was this a ransomware attack?

The filing does not say ransomware was involved. We do not label an incident ransomware unless the company’s report says so. Whatever the cause, the steps to protect yourself and the legal question are the same.

What we know

The Athens County Board of Developmental Disabilities functions as a specialized healthcare and social services provider, dedicated to supporting individuals with developmental disabilities through clinical care and case management. Given the nature of these services, the organization maintains highly sensitive records, including comprehensive medical histories, diagnostic information, and personal identification required for government-funded program enrollment. In 2025, the organization officially reported a data security incident to the New Hampshire Attorney General, confirming that unauthorized access to their systems occurred. If you received a data breach notification letter, it indicates that your personal or protected health information may have been compromised during this event. We recommend reviewing the letter carefully to understand the specific scope of the exposure and the identity monitoring services being offered.
