Matagorda County officials are working to restore systems after a recent ransomware attack locked files on county computers. IT staff shut down access to prevent further damage, but no services were hijacked, and no personal data appears compromised. County Judge Bobby Seiferman said full restoration could take two more weeks, with systems coming back online in phases. Commissioners extended a disaster declaration and are seeking state approval to waive late tax payment penalties. No hacking group has claimed responsibility.
