NHS IT Supplier Cyberattack – Ransom Demanded

There was a major NHS IT supplier cyberattack that impacted the majority of 111 outsourced systems last month, with incredibly personal and sensitive information reportedly held for ransom.

It was reported that the cybercriminals demanded a ransom on the threat of leaking medical information which could reportedly have affected millions of people.

We know that hackers target the healthcare sector, so it is not surprising to have seen that this incident has occurred. That being said, given how personal and sensitive information is in the healthcare sector, we expect cybersecurity to prevent these kinds of incidents being successful.

NHS Data Breach Threats and Claiming Compensation

Recognising and preventing NHS data breach threats is a core part of the mission to protect our valuable healthcare service and to ensure that patient confidentiality is upheld.

A lot of the claims for data breach compensation that we represent people for involve medical information. The reason for this is because it is often targeted by hackers, and it is also often the subject of data leaks because of how much information there is and how many people are involved. At the same time, this kind of information generally can have a substantial impact on the victim if it is misused or exposed, which often leads people to instruct us for a claim for compensation.
