The
Alabama Office of Information Technology (OIT) is actively responding to a
cybersecurity event impacting certain state systems. Immediate containment
measures have been implemented, and OIT is working closely with a leading
third-party cybersecurity firm to investigate the situation, secure systems,
and restore affected services as quickly and safely as possible.
As
part of the coordinated response, Alabama Medicaid is working in partnership
with OIT and the Office of the Governor to maintain continuity of essential
services. While every effort is being made to minimize disruption, temporary
interruptions—such as limited access to the Alabama Medicaid website, email,
and phone communications—may occur.
The
State of Alabama is committed to transparency and public safety throughout this
process. For the latest updates on the cybersecurity event and ongoing recovery
efforts, please visit: https://oit.alabama.gov/cybereventMay2025/
