The LockBit ransomware organisation claims to have breached the security of the healthcare provider Varian Medical Systems and has threatened to release cancer patients' medical information.
The Lockbit group claims on their TOR leak site that "ALL DATABASES AND PATIENT DATA WAS EXFILTRATED AND PREPARED TO BE PUBLISHED ON THE BLOG."
If verified, the incident might significantly affect cancer patients' right to privacy. The business hasn't yet made the security mishap public.
The ransom payment date has been set by Lockbit for August 17, 2023.
