Cybersecurity incident at BAE Systems disrupts US bankruptcy court system
A cybersecurity incident at BAE Systems has halted U.S. bankruptcy notices nationwide since October 9.
A cybersecurity incident at BAE Systems halted the Bankruptcy Noticing Center, which produces and delivers notices for every U.S. federal bankruptcy court. Websites including bnc.uscourts.gov and the National Creditor Registration Service went offline, and paper and electronic notices stopped on October 9. The Administrative Office of the U.S. Courts said BAE is investigating and restoring systems but gave no cause, no confirmation that data was accessed, and no restoration date. Courts continue to accept filings, though some registered creditor addresses may be missing from local records.
