COVID-19 Complication: Ransomware Keeps Hitting Healthcare

Ransomware attacks continue to hit healthcare organizations. Illinois’s Champaign-Urbana Public Health District was hit by the Netwalker ransomware, aka MailTo. Illinois has so far recorded 93 cases of COVID-19 inside the state of Illinois. HHS systems suffered an online attack over the weekend, the Department of Health and Human Services confirmed Monday. The source of the attack is still under investigation, but a full fix might take weeks to accomplish. In the meantime, there’s a global pandemic to contend with, and on Sunday, CUPHD confirmed its first confirmed local case of the disease.”]
