Cyber-Health Crisis: Soaring Ransomware Attacks Bleed Healthcare Dry After Change’s $22M Payout

Beware, healthcare hackers are on a shopping spree, and your data’s on the clearance rack! Change Healthcare’s $22M ransom payoff has set a costly trend, with April showers bringing a record-breaking ransomware downpour. Now that’s what you call an expensive virus!

Hot Take:

Let's give a round of virtual applause to Change Healthcare for inadvertently turning the cybersecurity scene into a 'ransomware gala'! By dishing out a cool $22 million to their cyber adversaries, they've not only set a gold standard for hacker retirement plans but also sent out engraved invitations to every cybercriminal with a laptop and a shady VPN. Now, the ransomware fiesta is in full swing, with the healthcare sector as the unfortunate piñata, and it seems the hits just keep on coming.
