The Ottawa Hospital

As tensions between Ottawa and New Delhi rise, a group of Indian hackers claims they attacked the Ottawa Hospital and other Canadian companies as retaliation against India.

The Indian Cyber Force gang announced on Twitter that they had temporarily blocked access to the Ottawa Hospital website.

The medical centre informed us that there had been a brief disruption of service, and it confirmed that it had happened. It also said an inquiry was being conducted to figure out what caused the outage.

The Indian Cyber Force has also bragged about attacking Canadian businesses, including a dentist's clinic in Mississauga that denied being the subject of a cyberattack when contacted.
