In January, hackers compromised portions of the New York state government's computer network by taking advantage of an unpatched vulnerability in Citrix enterprise software, according to the Wall Street Journal.

While the New York State Office of Information Technology Services discovered the hacking incident on Jan. 28, officials did not disclose the breach until Monday, after the Journal and other publications asked about it.
The attack disabled some state agency information systems and took nearly a month to resolve, according to the Albany Times Union.

State officials as well as the FBI are now investigating the hacking incident.

The hacking targeted databases used by several of the state's largest agencies, including the New York State Police, the Department of Environmental Conservation and the Department of Civil Service, according to the Journal.
