May 12, 2021 • (TNS) FBI and State Police cyber squads are investigating a malware attack that has paralyzed Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute’s computer systems since last week.
Since it was detected on Friday, the cyberattack has disrupted nearly all of the world-famous engineering and research school’s operations, officials confirmed.
