We have been contacted by concerned employees who are worried about whether their information has been misused or exposed as a result of the incident. We have received reports that there have been notifications issued to some employees, although it remains unclear as to whether any information has actually been exposed in the attack or not. As things stand, we are awaiting further information.
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.

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.
