The City of Murfreesboro has disclosed a security incident involving the online portal for its Water Resources Customer webpage.
In early August, IT personnel for the Rutherford County municipality detected some security issues affecting the online portal for the Water Resources Customer webpage. Tennessean reported that they decided to shut down the portal so that they could investigate the issues.

The IT department’s investigation revealed that digital attackers had gained access to the online portal via a single page containing old scripts.
But it had determined that the attack did not expose any customer information. It had also predicted that it would be able to restore access to the portal by 5 August, if not sooner, while it worked to update the old scripts used by the municipality.

The Macon County Circuit Clerk's website is working again after being disabled and replaced by a screen saying it had been hacked.
The web page showed an image of an anonymous mask with the Iranian flag and read, "Hacked by Iranian Hackers. Hacked by Mamad Warning. We are always closer to you. Your identity is known to us. Your information is for us :) take care."

Lois Durbin, the Macon County Circuit Clerk, said the website was hacked sometime during the night because the site was working yesterday evening.
There is no need to worry about a breach of personal identification information, because the office doesn't store that information on its site, Durbin said.

Crook County, Oregon, was also a target this month. The hackers took over the Crook County government and sheriff's office websites.
