The City of Little Rock's network services, including the email system used by city employees, went back online on Friday morning following an outage that began Tuesday.
"That outage was proactively initiated by the City of Little Rock to protect the security and integrity of the city’s systems and data," a news release issued Friday said. "We appreciate the City’s I.T. team for its around-the-clock efforts to ensure the safety of our network."
