Our reporters use a lot of databases to cross check information or even
spot an abnormality in a set of data that results in a great news story.
One set of databases that we use on a regular basis are our salary
databases of city, county, and school employees.
We're making the 2017 salary databases public:
Paterson City employees salaries
Paterson Public School District employees salaries
Passaic County employees salaries
Salaries of Paterson, Passaic County, and Paterson Public Schools employees (2017)

Website downtime; Internet attack mitigated (2/24/2017)
Saturday, February 25, 2017
You may have experienced slow loading time or errors while
attempting to visit or read a story on the Paterson Times website. Our digital
platform was under heavy denial of service attacks from 7 am to 9 pm on
2/24/2017.
Our technicians were able to trace the attacker to a computer
in Belgium (178.237.36.10) that was likely used as a proxy to launch the
attacks. Once the attacker had been identified a long list of attacking
machines were blocked from the system which allowed for intermittent access to
the website without full restoration of service.
Service was restored and the attack was mitigated at 9 p.m. and
new safeguards have been put in place to block future attackers.
We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.
