NHS SUPPLIER ENDS PROBE INTO RANSOMWARE ATTACK THAT CONTRIBUTED TO PATIENT DEATH
Summary from the TLDR InfoSec newsletter
Synnovis has completed an exhaustive 18-month investigation into a crippling ransomware attack in June 2024 that affected nearly a million NHS patients, severely disrupted London pathology services and leading to a patient's death. The probe struggled with fragmented data. While no ransom was paid and systems were replaced, many patients must still wait for official notification if their data was compromised.
