New York Blood Center Enterprises Ransomware Attack Update

Posted on January 29, 2025 by Dissent

A personal message to whatever threat actor or ransomware group hit the New York Blood Center: You are endangering lives, and every day that goes by will put more lives at risk. Do the morally right thing and give them a decryptor now.  — Dissent. 

A statement from the New York Blood Center:

January 29:

On Sunday, January 26, New York Blood Center Enterprises and its operating divisions identified suspicious activity affecting our IT systems. We immediately engaged third-party cybersecurity experts to investigate and confirmed that the suspicious activity is a result of a ransomware incident. We took immediate steps to help contain the threat and are working diligently with these experts to restore our systems as quickly and as safely as possible. Law enforcement has been notified.

We understand the critical nature of our services, and the health of our communities remains our top priority. We remain in direct communication with our hospital partners and are implementing workarounds to help restore services and fulfill orders.

We remain incredibly grateful for the generous response of our greater blood community – including our hospital partners, hospital associations, blood centers across the country, the AABB Interorganizational Task Force, and our donors – who have all come together to help advance our shared mission.
