What happened
- MVSU says “the recent cyber incident affecting our website hosting provider” disrupted its website, and “some portions of the website may require additional time and effort to fully recover.” Neither the statement PDF nor the homepage notice is dated; KonBriefing lists it on 28 Oct 2026.
- Root cause: not disclosed. The provider is not named (“our hosting partner”); a link to the U.S.NEXT attack that hit Mississippi government sites in October (separate entry) is not confirmed.
- No attacker named.
- The Office of Information Technology is “working closely with our provider”; the homepage says “Website Rebuild in Progress” and restoration “remains ongoing”.
