Ransomware Precautions With Service Provider Affecting VCSC Early in School Year

The Vincennes Community School Corporation’s technology provider, AME, was affected by a ransomware attack involving one of AME’s customers.

As a precaution, the district has temporarily shut down its servers.

Phone and internet service will be unavailable at all school buildings as a result.

Officials emphasized that the school system has not been compromised and that the shutdown is only a precaution while AME addresses the issue.

The district will provide an update when services resume.
