Cyberattack on UK Health Firm Contributed to Patient Death
A cyberattack that caused disruption at hospitals in London last year contributed to the death of a patient, health officials have confirmed for the first time.
The incident occurred after a Russian hacking gang in June 2024 targeted Synnovis, a contractor that provides blood testing, transfusion and other pathology services to the UK's National Health Service, or NHS. The breach triggered a major crisis at health-care providers predominantly in the southeast of the city.
