Moorfields NHS UK & Dubai was targeted by the threat actors calling themselves AvosLocker in September 2021.
The threat actors exfiltrated and dumped the files concerned with business functions and personnel resumes, credentials, and related personnel files when they refused to pay.
The dumped data included patients’ names, time of appointment, ID number, diagnosis, tests run, and insurance information along with a separate file containing more than 1,100 photocopies of patients’ passports.
