The Ascension health system in the US is working to restore its IT systems following a ransomware attack, which caused significant disruption to its network of hospitals. The attackers are believed to be the Black Basta ransomware group, which has impacted over 500 organizations globally since April 2022. The attack affected Ascension’s electronic health records and other systems, forcing medical staff to resort to paper-based records. The FBI, CISA, HHS, and MS-ISAC have issued a joint advisory about Black Basta, warning that it is targeting the healthcare sector.
