A criminal group has reportedly published online data from the NHS cyber attack that resulted in the cancellation of operations. The attack is believed to have been orchestrated by the Russian group Qilin.

Data from a recent cyber-attack on London NHS hospitals has reportedly been leaked online. The attack, which occurred earlier this month, resulted in the cancellation of nearly 1,600 operations and outpatient appointments in the capital. The ransomware attack targeted Synnovis, a private pathology firm that handles blood test analysis for Guy’s and St Thomas’ NHS foundation trust (GSTT) and King’s College trust. It is believed that the attack was carried out by a Russian group. Following the cyber-attack on 3 June, hospitals in London were forced to cancel a significant number of operations and appointments, causing disruption to patient care. The leaked data has raised concerns about the security of sensitive information within the healthcare system. NHS England has acknowledged the breach and is working to address the situation. The incident serves as a reminder of the ongoing threat posed by cyber-attacks on critical infrastructure and the importance of robust cybersecurity measures in safeguarding sensitive data.
