Two National Health Service trusts in the U.K., University College London Hospitals and University Hospital Southampton, were targeted in cyberattacks that exposed staff data. The vulnerabilities originated from the Ivanti Endpoint Manager Mobile tool, which had a flaw patched recently. While the attacks have raised alarms regarding supply chain security, both trusts do not have evidence of any breach affecting patient data. Reports indicate that other organizations across multiple countries have also been victims, emphasizing the need for enhanced cybersecurity measures.
UCLH is investigating the attack with cybersecurity experts at NHS England but claims there is 'no evidence' that patient data was accessed.
The cyberattack on two NHS trusts underscores the need for stronger supply chain security practices to protect sensitive information and systems.
