Tonight the General Registry at the High Court of Belize remains under the hold of a hacker or hackers who have launched a ransomware attack. This has crippled the general registry - and sources tell us that staffers are being advised not to even turn on their computers.
A benign notice from the Courts last night says, quote, "our High Court Registry is experiencing technical difficulties within our internal IT infrastructure. These have impacted our case management system."
The release adds that one portal for e-filing remains operational.
We are told experts from CITO and BTL are working with the court's IT staff to resolve the issue - but they are up against sophisticated ransomware. Up to news time, it remained under attack.
