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

Pike County, Ohio, operates as a government entity responsible for managing public records, tax assessments, and various social services for its residents. In the course of these administrative duties, the county collects and maintains sensitive personal information, including government identification numbers, financial records, and residential data. This data breach was officially reported to the New Hampshire Attorney General in 2025, confirming that unauthorized access to these systems occurred. If you have received a formal data breach notification letter from the county, it indicates that your personal information may have been among the files compromised during this incident. We recommend reviewing the letter carefully to understand the specific scope of the exposure and the identity protection services being offered to you.
