Metro’s computer systems were hacked in mid-March, the agency says. L.A. Metro shut down parts of its network after its security team detected hacking activity last month, and law enforcement and cybersecurity specialists are continuing to investigate who was behind the attack, authorities said. “On Monday, March 16, Metro proactively limited employee access to many internal administrative computer systems after the agency’s security team discovered unauthorized activity,” an agency spokesperson said. That includes reviewing about 1,400 servers individually to ensure they are secure before restoring access and bringing systems back online, he said. AdvertisementMetro is not the only regional public agency to have its computer systems targeted in a cyberattack.
