UHS restores hospital systems after Ryuk ransomware attack

Universal Health Services (UHS) says that it has managed to restore systems after a September Ryuk ransomware attack. UHS has over 90,000 employees who provide healthcare services to roughly 3.5 million patients every year through a network of more than 400 healthcare facilities in the US and the UK. The company hasn’t disclosed the nature of the nationwide September attack on its systems in the initial disclosure statement or today’s report and 8K filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The attack on UHS’ systems most likely started via a phishing attack.
