US blood donation giant, violence warning after ransomware attack

New York (NYBC), one of the largest non-profit blood centers in the United States, said he had violations of service after being attacked by a ransom.

Nybc said In a statement made on Wednesday The organization identified the suspicious activity in IT systems on January 26, was a ransomware attack confirmed since today.

“NYBC said that, including the threat, including certain systems, we took immediate steps to include the threat, including offline,” Nybc said.

Medical services related to more than 200 hospitals in the northeast, US and transfusional medical services are generally up to 500 hospitals, causing the incident to violate the incident. Non-profit, gift center’s activities and blood drivers should be resumed and processing times for blood donates can be longer than normal.

He said the organizational systems were trying to restore as soon as possible, but “I do not have a certain schedule for the restoration of the system at the moment,” he said.

It comes like NYBC Blood declared urgent Last week, after seeing the 30% fall of the organization’s donations, “the region’s blood supply was crippled.” The donations of all blood species are urgently, some types of “dangerous low” supply, NYBC, then made a press comment.

“We understand the critical nature of our services and the health of our communities remains a priority,” the blood center said on Wednesday. “We communicate directly with our hospital partners and carry out jobs to help restore services and carry orders.”

Behind Cyberattack is not known who is behind whom and no major Ransomware group still required a loan to intervene. It is not clear whether there is any patient information in case of the attack or if the NYBC has received a ransom requirement. NYBC did not respond to TechCrunch questions immediately.
