There's been a "significant" cyber attack against the city of Saint John, according to a news release from the municipality on Sunday evening. The city's 911 communication system is working, but other services such as online payments systems, email and customer service applications are all down. Officials with the city say they don't yet know whether any personal information stored on the networks has been compromised. Saint John is now co-ordinating with federal and provincial agencies to try reduce any risk and "contain and eradicate the virus." The city is directing people to the Saint John Facebook and Twitter accounts for further updates.
