Reports are coming in of an NHS cyberattack hitting hospitals across the UK.
The NHS hack is said to be “creeping” across the country with NHS staff and health journalists tweeting images of the ransomware. So far, hospitals in the north, south west of England and the south are said to have been hit following a supposed hack on Friday afternoon. Further reports said GPs were also being targeted.
East and North Hertfordshire NHS confirmed it has experienced a “major IT problem, believed to be caused by a cyberattack”. In a statement, NHS Digital confirmed a number of NHS organisations had been affected by a ransomware attack. “The investigation is at an early stage but we believe the malware variant is Wanna Decryptor,” a spokesperson said.
