MONCKS CORNER, S.C. – (Tuesday, December 17, 2019) — Berkeley County has restored its online services after a temporary shutdown, as a precautionary measure, earlier on Tuesday, December 17.
Due to the recent increase in ransomware activity, Berkeley County noticed suspicious activity on the County servers and took systems offline to perform security scans. Systems have since been cleared and are back online.
The County is thankful for community members’ understanding and patience during the short-term incident.
