BETHEL PARK, Pa. — Bethel Park officials said their website was hacked on Thursday.
The Municipality of Bethel Park said inappropriate images were posted to the website without their authorization.
They contacted the hosting company to remove those images.
On Friday, Bethel Park officials provided an update saying the hosting company confirmed the breach happened on their end. They said they had similar issues with other clients. They will provide Bethel Park with a detailed report early next week.
Officials said there is no evidence that any user data was breached. They also emphasized that credit card information is stored on an entirely different system than the one that was hacked.
The FBI has been called to help investigate.
“The security of our site is our top priority, and we are implementing measures to ensure that this does not happen again,” officials said.
The municipality apologized for any distress the situation may have caused.
