•[ ransomware, third-party risk, payment processing outage ]
City officials said Mariettas inability to process some online credit card payments was caused by a nationwide ransomware incident at BridgePay Network Solutions, one of the citys online payment gateway providers. The city stated its own systems and data were not compromised, but the vendor outage disrupted payment processing for municipal services. Officials worked to stand up a secure alternative solution while the vendor coordinated response with federal authorities and incident-response partners.
