CardioComm Solutions, Inc.

CardioComm Solutions, a Canadian supplier of consumer- and professional-grade heart monitoring products, has been taken offline due to an ongoing cybersecurity incident.

The HeartCheck CardiBeat, a portable electrocardiogram (ECG) monitor that pairs with a user's smartphone through Bluetooth to communicate results to a doctor, clinic, or CardioComm's SMART monitoring ECG reading service, is among the devices from CardioComm that are impacted by the outage.

Its ongoing efforts to recover its data and set up its production server settings imply that the business may have been affected by a damaging incident, such as a ransomware attack.
