Dallas is still recovering from last week's ransomware attack.

The city of Dallas is still working to get all of its systems back online after alast week. It’s making steady progress. As of Monday, dallascityhall.com and dallaspolice.net are functioning again after the attack knocked them down for several days.

The municipal court system is still down from the hack, so citations due to the court will be accepted after it gets restored. People with a citation to pay or documents due to the court while the system is down will be given an extension without penalty. 911 and 311 calls are still being taken by phone and radio dispatch while the city’s computer assisted dispatch systems are being tested to make sure they’re not still infected with malware. The city said in a statement Monday that the computer assisted dispatch systems should be up and running again some time early this week.

The city didn’t say exactly how many devices have been affected by the hack. But there are some 1,900 mobile devices shared between the Dallas Police Department and Dallas-Fire Rescue that are used for the computer assisted dispatch systems, and all of those devices are down for testing. “As city staff and contractors review devices, ensure they are secure, and bring them online, computer assisted dispatch functionality will increase for DPD, DFR and 311,” the city said in its statement.
