Akron officials requested Ohio National Guard To Help Investigate Cyberattack on city of Akron. Hackers installed malware specifically targeting the citys accounts in an attempt to steal money. No evidence that shows the virus captured taxpayer or customer data. The city sprang into action and the systems were shut down including the city’s 3-1-1 information line to safeguard the city infrastructure. The city has invested more than $9 million since 2016 in IT infrastructure and maintenance, said Mayor Dan Horrigan.”]
