Alabama Board of Nursing – Service Disruption Notice
September 1, 2026

The Alabama Board of Nursing is currently experiencing a disruption to certain technology systems related to a cybersecurity event.

Upon identifying the issue, the Board took precautionary measures to protect its systems and information, including temporarily taking certain systems and services offline while the matter is assessed. As a result, some Board services may be temporarily unavailable or delayed.

The Alabama Board of Nursing is working with cybersecurity professionals and appropriate state resources to investigate the event and safely restore services. The investigation is active and ongoing.

At this time, we are not able to provide additional information regarding the nature or scope of the event. Providing accurate information is important, and we do not want to speculate while the investigation remains underway.

We recognize the inconvenience this disruption may cause to nurses, applicants, healthcare organizations, and others who rely on Board services. We appreciate your patience as we work to safely restore operations.

The Alabama Board of Nursing will provide an additional public update within three business days, or sooner if circumstances warrant.

***Scammers Continue to Target Alabama Nurses***
Attention: Alabama Nurses
The Alabama Board of Nursing (ABN) continues to receive reports of attempts to defraud Alabama nurses. These scammers are able to spoof phone numbers and forge documents to give the appearance of official contact from the ABN. Please be assured that no ABN employee would ever ask you to “tell no one of an investigation” or request immediate payment of any fee or fine. Everyone is entitled to due process and the ABN adheres to formal procedures, including sending each nurse a written Notice of Investigation, when investigating complaints.
If you receive contact from someone claiming to be an ABN investigator, please note the caller’s information and contact the ABN at 334-293-5200. Do not give money or personal information to these individuals, as we have your information on file at the ABN.
