The Center Hospitalier Sud Francilien (CHSF), a hospital in France, was subject to a cyberattack on Sunday and was compelled to refer patients to other facilities.
Any interruption in CHSF’s activities might risk the health and the lives of persons who are in need of medical attention because the organization covers a region with 600,000 inhabitants.
Threat actors, according to local media, seek a $10 million ransom in exchange for the decryption key needed to recover encrypted data.
“This attack on the establishment’s computer network renders all of the hospital’s business software, storage systems (particularly medical imaging), and patient admissions information system inoperable for the time being.” explains the announcements
The management of the hospital has not given any more information on the matter, and the IT system outage that prompted limited operations is still plaguing the facility.
“An investigation for intrusion into a computer system and attempted extortion in an organized gang has been opened to the cybercrime section of the Paris prosecutor’s office,” the latter said, adding that the investigations had been entrusted to gendarmes from the Center fight against digital crime (C3N). According to Le Monde.
According to the French website LemagIT, a “source close to the investigation” confirmed that the attack was launched by an affiliate of LockBit 3.0 RaaS. LockBit gang has yet to clarify whether or not they consider this attack to be a violation of the rules applied to their affiliates.
A “source close to the inquiry,” confirmed” that a LockBit 3.0 RaaS affiliate was responsible for the attack. The LockBit Gang has not yet made it clear if they believe that this attack violated the standards that apply to its affiliates: according to the website LemagIT
If this ransomware group is responsible for the attack, it would be against the RaaS program’s regulations, which forbid affiliates from encrypting healthcare providers’ systems. Since the threat group’s involvement hasn’t been officially established, it is still only a hypothesis.
