The All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) in New Delhi experienced an IT outage following a suspected ransomware attack. The attack affected the hospital’s digital services, including lab services, billing, and appointment systems.

The incident raises concerns as AIIMS plans to fully implement its e-hospital system next year.
