Is it attack or screwup with emails again? I have vague memory of such event happening in the past.

Cant wait to hear about how the russians did it, and about all their amazing motives to fuck up the NHS

Well, we're not exactly friendly with Russia and it's not like state sponsored cyber attacks are uncommon (Not specifically Russian ones). Originally Posted by Mofn

My Network Security Lecturer is going to be pissed the semester has finished because this would be a couple of lectures worth of case study I bet.

NHS Wales is trying to increase waiting times in England to make their service look less shit.

Free medical care.
With all the cuts to the service from the current government, I am very surprised that this has not happened sooner. Cuts to the NHS don't just effect front-line services.

''GPs are resorting to using pen and paper, according to newspaper the Blackpool Gazette''
We have caught the culprits, this is what GP's wanted all along, we can shut down the investigation now
In all seriousness, lets wait to see how this pans out and I hope nobody gets hurt because of this, since hospitals are incredibly reliant upon their IT systems in this day and age.

BBC reporting it as "Ransomware", Doubt they will pay up.

It's not free it costs £1500 per person per year. I'm not sure what the exchange rate is today.
So that's like £100 a month? Or about... $140? That's pretty high..

I'm not one to poke my nose in another countries healthcare system but would this not prove why state owned healthcare is not a good idea? Considering attacks like this have the potential screw many people over?
