BEFORE BLACKOUT CYBER ATTACK HAPPENS

After Nevada cyberattack, what state services are working and what aren’t?

What happened?

  • Early Sunday, August 24, the State of Nevada identified a ransomware-based cyber incident and immediately activated its cyber response plan, engaging in 24/7 recovery efforts.
  • To contain the threat, teams isolated and took some systems offline while restoring others safely in stages.
  • The incident remains under active state and federal investigation in coordination with CISA and the FBI. To protect internal systems during an ongoing criminal investigation, technical details cannot be shared at this time (NRS 242.105).
  • A forensic review confirms that some data was exfiltrated (moved outside the state network). Investigators are determining scope. If personal information is confirmed, the State will notify affected individuals consistent with Nevada law (see NRS 603A.040 and NRS 603A.220).
  • The incident continues to impact the availability of certain state technology systems. Some websites or phone lines may be slow or temporarily unavailable during recovery.
  • The State remains focused on restoring services safely and securely while validating systems before returning them to normal operation.

Cyberattack forces closure of Nevada state offices for two days, governor says

On August 25, 2025, Nevada Governor Joe Lombardo ordered the closure of most state offices after the Governor's Technology Office reported a statewide network security incident. The incident affected the ability of state agencies to conduct normal business operations. 
Key details from the announcement:
  • Office closures: The order closed all state executive branch government offices, with the exception of essential public safety and corrections personnel.
  • Outages: The network security incident caused some state websites and phone lines to be slow or unavailable.
  • Contingency plans: State agencies, such as the Nevada State Police, advised that administrative and online services would be down, but emergency dispatch phone lines and officers on patrol would remain active.
  • Official updates: The office of Governor Lombardo announced on X (formerly Twitter) that more information about the state's recovery efforts would be provided later.
  • Response efforts: The Governor's Technology Office immediately began working to resolve the issue. 
Subsequent reports indicated that the incident was a ransomware attack, and some data was exfiltrated from the state's systems. A state-run hotline and website were established to provide information and assistance to Nevadans
