BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) — Louisiana’s technology office says one in ten of the 5,000 computer network servers that power operations across state government were damaged by this week’s cyberattack.

Neal Underwood is Louisiana’s deputy chief information officer. He told budget committee lawmakers Friday that the ransomware attack wasn’t catastrophic to state government. No data was lost, and no ransom was paid.
