Maryland-based nursing home announces ransomware attack affecting nearly 50,000 residents

Maryland-based nursing home says some of its systems files were encrypted in the attack on June 6. Social Security number, dates of birth, addresses, treatments and health diagnosis were among the private information accessed. The family-owned facility has hired a team of security experts to determine the extent of the breach. The attack has been attributed to the Netwalker ransomware gang, which apparently leaked some of the exfiltrated information after Lorien Health Services refused to pay the ransom. A data dump consisting of a password-protected 147MB archive is currently available for download.”]
