Pennington County officials say recovery efforts continue following a recent cybersecurity incident, with most county offices remaining open and operational despite some ongoing service limitations.
The Treasurer’s Office has resumed motor vehicle transactions and is once again accepting all forms of payment, though customers should expect longer wait times due to reduced processing capacity. Residents are encouraged to use self-service kiosks or the state’s online service, My605Drive.gov, when possible.
The Real Estate Division remains without its electronic queue system and is serving customers on a first-come, first-served basis.
The Auditor’s Office reminds residents that early voting is available through five p.m. today at the County Administration Building, with Election Day set for tomorrow. The office is still unable to process lien payments.
The Register of Deeds Office has resumed processing vital records requests, although some real estate documents cannot be fully processed until systems are restored.
County email remains unavailable, but phone lines are functioning normally. Officials say county IT staff, working with state and federal partners, continue investigating and restoring systems. At this time, no action is required from the public, and residents will be contacted directly if any personal information is found to have been compromised.
