Cyberattack Impacts Two Ambulance Services in the UK

A cyberattack on two UK ambulance services affected their access to electronic patient records, disrupting operations for over a week. The attack targeted Swedish health-tech firm Ortivus, which provides the electronic patient record system. Although no patients were directly impacted, the lack of access to vital medical data led to difficulties. An investigation by the NHS and various law enforcement bodies is underway to identify the hackers.
