Cybersecurity Incident Disrupts Operations of Federal Bankruptcy Courts Nationwide

A cybersecurity incident has affected the IT systems and websites supporting the Bankruptcy Noticing Center (BNC), which is responsible for producing and transmitting bankruptcy notices for all federal bankruptcy courts across the United States. The incident, impacting BAE Systems IT, has rendered BNC systems and related bankruptcy noticing processes unavailable, halting the distribution of notices. The Administrative Office of the U.S. Courts is collaborating with BAE Systems to restore operations.
