Fayette Co. Title Dept. computers still down following global IT outage

WASHINGTON COURT HOUSE, Ohio — The Fayette County Title Department is still experiencing complications from the global IT outage.

The outage, which began last week, is reportedly linked to a problem with the cybersecurity program CrowdStrike. It has affected Microsoft systems globally, causing disruptions for various organizations.

Authorities say the Title Department is still experiencing computer issues as they await assistance from a state IT technician for repairs. This has resulted in limited services and potential delays for residents seeking title-related services.

The Sheriff’s Office also noted that the Bureau of Motor Vehicles (BMV) in Fayette County is experiencing limitations due to the outage.

Residents are advised to contact the Title Department directly for updates on the situation.
