Pinal County school employees still trying to get paychecks after ransomware attack, printer issues

"On Sunday, the Pinal County School Office Data Processing Service Consortium was the victim of a ransomware attack.

But soon, printing issues would slow down the process and delay the checks. The Florence Unified School District thought they’d have checks ready by 2 p.m. Friday, but when employees showed up, they were met with bad news. The printer issues had delayed checks getting out and employees would not be able to receive their checks on Friday. Thankfully, most employees are taking it in stride.

It was delayed, but checks were able to get out in the Maricopa Unified School District and Casa Grande Union High School District.
