You would be wrong. I work IT in a large hospital system. This is real
Not sure I’d trust anything the FBI has to say. Totally corrupt as is the DOJ.
China.
The Communists are attacking on all fronts.
FBI: “We need to get focus off our malfeasance, so we’re going to ramsomware attack hospitals!”
I was a IT Project Manager under contract to a very large healthcare provider in Norcal.
My project was to patch/correct every server platform in the enterprise...over 20,000 of them...and provide “secure privileged access” for the various engineers who had to keep these platforms running and maintained. So that only these “privileged” persons could make changes.
The project spun out of a security audit that found, essentially, there was no security.
Policies were developed. Standard, secure configurations for all platforms. Audit schedules...the whole nine yards.
When the project kicked off immediately there was resistance and inertia from every single stakeholder. As the project stalled the CIO decided to change to definition of what “remediated” meant. The new definition meant that each individual platform owner agreed to perform their own remediation within 3 years. That was almost 2 years ago.
They fired me when I refused to falsify mitigation reports. Just like the PM that was there before me, and one that followed me.
Buddies still onsite assure me nothing has changed. The place is still an open book...would not pass even the most rudimentary security audit and 3rd parties are still granted remote, unsecured access.
Over 50,000 employees and over 10,000 beds.
CRIMINAL NEGLIGENCE!
The FBI is probably about to do it. They really should be defunded
Probably the FBI doing it. Who trusts the FBI anymore? I sure do not.
Hate to have to tell you this but I work in a hospital in NJ. We’re seeing a Covid spike.
