Russian DDoS hacktivists seen targeting western hospitals

Russian hacktivist group, Killnet, has targeted healthcare organisations across the world, including the UK, US, Germany, Netherlands, and Norway. Killnet started ramping up its denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks following the decision by Germany and the US to supply Ukraine with tanks in the ongoing conflict with Russia. The group, which is allegedly supported by Moscow, has caught the attention of intelligence agencies and cybersecurity firms as their attacks threaten to disrupt critical services in healthcare.
