Why We Still Know So Little About the Nevada Cyberattack

Description

On August 24th, the state of Nevada became aware of a major cyberattack on government computers — critical systems like the DMV, Medicare, and employment were taken offline for days or even weeks. Some state websites are still down. So today, a month on, why do we know so little about the attack, and has the governor's office been too tight-lipped? Or are they just trying to protect our systems against other attacks? Jessica Hill, reporter at the Review-Journal, and Steve Sebelius, senior political reporter at Channel 13, have been following the story since it broke, and tell co-host Dayvid Figler what we know, what we don't, and how it could affect Nevadans.
