The school also said that it is cooperating with the FBI during the investigation.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It was not immediately clear what if any information may have been compromised. Ransomware is a type of malicious software that blocks access to a computer system or data and demands a ransom for its release.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The school also said that phone systems are currently not available and that families may not be able to access certain online tools during this time. The school said regular updates will be posted online at <strong>https:\/\/www.eths202.org\/about\/cybersecurity-incident<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The FBI did not immediately respond to a request for comment Sunday evening.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Editor\u2019s note: This is a developing story and will be updated.<\/p>\n<p><h3 class=\"jp-relatedposts-headline\">Related Stories<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tNews Editor Bob Chiarito has reported extensively for the National Desk at The New York Times, writing several front page stories and sharing in a team Pulitzer Prize for COVID coverage in 2020.
