Network security breach

There has been a very serious security breach of the campus systems.This is a ransomware attack that can potentially spread across our connected file servers and systems. The problem appears to be specific to Microsoft Windows-based computers but can impact any computer using campus-based Windows file sharing.  In order to prevent further damage, ITS has shut down all of its Windows Servers.  If your Department is running Windows Servers or Windows file shares on other operating systems you should shut them down. In addition, in order to prevent corrupt systems and possible data loss, all Microsoft Windows-based desktops that are connected to the campus network should also be shut down until the problem has been fixed. 

See which systems are affected:
