Investigation into cyber attack ‘could take weeks’, says NHS England

Investigations into a cyber attack on NHS provider Synnovis could take weeks, says NHS England. The incident, led by Russian group Qilin on 3 June, has forced the cancellation of hundreds of operations and appointments, specifically in South East London. Synnovis is now focused on technical recovery, although full restoration could take months. In the meantime, a helpline and website have been set up for affected patients.
