Just last week, a New York based healthcare system was in jeopardy.
Ryuk Ransomware successfully disconnected its IT system within hours of the initial attack!
How come this was not detected? A new form of ransom was not identified by the antivirus software providers and security agencies.
With protocol in place, the hospital restored the IT operations and rebooted their system - the same day as the attack and redirected the emergency cases so the care is undisturbed.
At this point - no critical health data is compromised, according to the initial analysis.
Welcome to OUR new normal - where anytime we utilize, upgrade, and improve OUR technology, comes the new form of a cyber attack.
It's not just the hospitals that rely on the protocol and mitigation plan to recover as fast as possible - but also the companies who rely on the digital system to perform the service and/or depend on and hold critical and sensitive data that could be compromised!
This New York hospital has risk management and incident response plan in place and can take fast action to minimize the impact of the cyberattack.
