A sophisticated ransomware attack hit Nevada's government systems Sunday, forcing all state offices to close and potentially compromising personal information. Gov. Joe Lombardo initially said no data was stolen, but officials revealed Wednesday that hackers may have accessed personal records during the breach. The cyberattack immobilized essential services statewide. DMV offices remain closed, leaving residents unable to complete appointments. Law enforcement lost access to state records, and Nevada State Police dispatch lines went down temporarily, though 911 services stayed operational. State officials are carefully rebuilding systems to ensure hackers are completely removed before reconnecting networks. The attack highlights growing threats to smaller government agencies nationwide. **Source:** [CBS News](https://www.cbsnews.com/news/cyberattack-cripples-nevada-state-systems/)
