In the wake of a massive cyberattack on the Department of Revenue, South Carolina’s top judge assured lawmakers Wednesday that the state’s court system was secure from hackers.

"Technology and its use in changing the way we do business in the court system in South Carolina has been my hallmark," Chief Justice Jean Toal told a joint session of the state Legislature in her annual address. "Be assured and aware that cybersecurity for the courts system has been an integral part of our design."
