DESCRIPTION

A saga that began with a municipal employee opening a corrupted email has forced a small Florida city to take the extraordinary step of agreeing to pay nearly $600,000 to the hackers who paralyzed their computer systems. With Riviera Beach’s records held hostage, its city council voted unanimously to pay 65k in cryptocurrency to the hackers — a tab that will be picked up by the city’s insurance carrier.
