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

Mower County appears to be a government entity responsible for managing essential public services, administrative records, and constituent data for its residents. As a local government body, the county collects and maintains sensitive personal information, including vital records, tax documentation, property assessments, and employment data for its workforce. This security incident was officially reported to the Indiana Attorney General in 2025, confirming that unauthorized access to certain systems occurred. If you received a data breach notification letter, it indicates that your personal information was potentially exposed during this event. We recommend reviewing the letter carefully to understand the specific nature of the incident and the identity protection services being offered to help secure your information against potential misuse.
