Intoxalock confirmed the issue on Monday, with no resolution reported as of Thursday morning.<\/p>\n<p>ST PAUL, Minn. \u2014 A &#8220;cybersecurity event&#8221; has left some drivers with vehicles equipped with ignition interlock devices unable to drive their vehicles.                    <\/p>\n<p>Intoxalock, which provides ignition interlock device services to Minnesota and several other states, confirmed the issue in a post on social media Monday.                    <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Intoxalock is currently investigating a cybersecurity event that was recently identified, impacting our ability to service our customers,&#8221; the company posted. &#8220;We are committed to providing our customers, partners, and stakeholders with timely updates as we learn more.&#8221;                    <\/p>\n<p>Under Minnesota state law, ignition interlock devices are an option for &#8220;eligible alcohol or drug offenders&#8221; to measure the driver&#8217;s alcohol concentration level. The device is connected to the engine; if the device detects alcohol, the engine will not start.                    <\/p>\n<p>Viewer messages sent to KARE 11 and posts on the Intoxalock Facebook page indicate some drivers have been unable to go to work because of the issues with their devices.                    <\/p>\n<p>Intoxalock said it will post status updates to its website. The company said its service centers will offer a 10-day extension on calibration and certain towing charges.                    <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Intoxalock will be covering (calibration) costs that are a direct result of the temporary system pause,&#8221; the company posted.                    <\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8216;Cybersecurity event&#8217; leaves some cars with ignition interlock devices unable to drive https:\/\/www.kare11.com\/article\/news\/local\/cybersecurity-event-ignition-interlock-devices-unable-to-drive\/89-059aa2d6-d8ec-4e02-b302-4116acaebea1 Publish Date:&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":197442,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/media.kare11.com\/assets\/KARE\/images\/b58b86fc-980b-4ec0-af3a-c3de49ae10c5\/20260319T154422\/b58b86fc-980b-4ec0-af3a-c3de49ae10c5_1140x641.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[15],"tags":[24],"class_list":["post-197441","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-cybersecurity","tag-cybersecurity"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/197441"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=197441"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/197441\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":197443,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/197441\/revisions\/197443"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/197442"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=197441"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=197441"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=197441"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
