Hackers Breach Psychiatric Practice in Finland, Hold Patient Data to Ransom

Finnish psychotherapy firm Vastaamo says it has fallen victim to a hacker attack. Vastamo has offices in around two dozen cities in Finland, including the capital, Helsinki. According to local news outlet newsnowfinland.fi, the attackers indeed made such a request. The amount demanded is unknown, but it’s not certain whether Vastaam is dealing with a ransomware attack. In the past year, ransomware operators have not only encrypted but also downloaded the victims data, threatening to make it public.”]
