‘Light at end of tunnel’ for London NHS after June cyber attack

Posted on October 5, 2024 by Dissent

Inside Croydon provides an update on the devastating ransomware attack by Qilin that targeted an NHS service provider:

Four months after a malicious cyber attack on IT systems serving major hospitals in south London, the NHS says that it is in “the final stages of recovery” and “nearly all services are now up and running”.

“There is still work ahead of us… but thankfully we now see light at the end of this tunnel,” according to one senior official.

Pathology services provider Synnovis suffered the hack attack on June 3. The consequences have seen 10,152 acute outpatient appointments and 1,710 elective procedures postponed at King’s College Hospital in Camberwell, Guy’s at London Bridge and St Thomas’ at Waterloo. Patient treatment at Oxleas NHS Foundation Trust, Lewisham and Greenwich NHS Trust, Bromley Healthcare and primary care services were also affected.
