MSP waits on ICO, fights to rebuild systems

IT service provider Advanced is still struggling to recover systems following a ransomware attack that impacted seven medical software systems on August 4. The outage led to chaos for some NHS services, with personnel unable to access patient notes. The company is currently waiting for a conclusion from the ICO’s investigation into the security breach. While some impacted systems may not be restored until December, restoration work is already underway for a few.
