NHS cyberattack targets two UK ambulance services

Two UK National Health Service (NHS) ambulance services have fallen victim to a cyber attack, rendering electronic patient records inaccessible for over a week. The attack originated in the systems of Swedish health-tech company Ortivus, which provides the patient record service to the NHS. Though Ortivus is working to restore and recover data, the hackers behind the attack are yet to be identified. No patients have been directly affected by the attack.
