RDOS information system update

News Article

Information Release

The Regional District of Okanagan-Similkameen (RDOS) continues to operate with limited access to its internal system network and email services. An attempted ransomware attack last week required Information Services (IS) staff to isolate the network and take email, Internet and other services offline.

IS staff continue to work with cyber insurance experts to validate the integrity of the servers prior to bringing them back online. There is currently no estimated for resumption of full services. The RDOS thanks the public and the media for their patience during this time, and will be providing daily information system updates on the RDOS website under Hot Topics.

The following email addresses are available for the public to reach staff, until regular email is restored:
