A company providing live and archived video services to the city of Littleton was a victim Monday in a “global-wide cyber attack.”
, which provides live and video archived services for Littleton, and other municipalities and government bodies, said the attack was quickly discovered by company engineers and “steps to mitigate the damage” were taken on Monday afternoon.
However, viewing of Littleton’s Tuesday night city council meeting on computers and mobile devices was interrupted by “video stuttering or freezing, or even a black screen,” according to a media release on the incident.
City staffers notified Granicus of the difficulties and the company has corrected the situation.
“It was temporary,” said Kelli Narde, a Littleton spokeswoman.
The cyber attack did not go beyond the video service provided by Granicus, Narde said.
Viewers who watched the meeting on Comcast Channel 8 were not affected.
