Top issues during term (3)(General)
cybersecurity ransomware incident
El Cerrito could face unplanned costs for forensic investigation, system recovery, legal and notification duties, and possible service disruptions—though the amount isn’t known yet.
cyberattack ransomware
Expect possible ransom demands, IT recovery bills, and downtime costs—none of which are cheap, and taxpayers may cover them.
divestment from war criminals
Expect possible transition costs or modest return changes as the city reshuffles its portfolio, though the amounts are likely small for a city of its size.
