A malicious cyberattack targeted the New York Joint Commission on Public Ethics (JCOPE) last week, resulting in an outage of the Lobbying Application, the online filing portal for lobbyists.
The online system will remain down until JCOPE is confident it can be restored safely.
Extensions will automatically be granted for any filings that were due and could not be submitted due to the outage.
