AIIMS ransomware attack: These online services are back at country’s premier medical institute

AIIMS ransomware attack: These online services are back at country’s premier medical institute

Two weeks after the All India Institute of Medical Science (AIIMS) reported a ransomware attack which rendered its servers paralysed, some online services at the premier medical institute resumed this week. Other services are said to resume later this week.

Media reports suggest that the online registration of new patients and follow-up registrations at the new Rajkumari Amrit Kaur (RAK) OPD at AIIMS Delhi have resumed. Other services such as the online appointment system are still down and laboratory services are operating in manual mode.

“Outpatient department (OPD) registration and admission processes were brought online in the e-Hospital system yesterday (Monday). The integration of the smart lab is being worked on for samples collected from all wards and collection areas for automated analysis and reporting. Additionally, agencies such as CERT, BEL, and DRDO are on the ground helping with the rollout,” news agency PTI quoted an official source as saying.

Other services at AIIMS resume to resume this week
Citing a source, news agency ANI reported that other online services at AIIMS Delhi will resume later this week. “Approximately 4,000 computers have been scanned and antivirus has also been uploaded for future safety,” a source was quoted as saying. The internet services are still blocked at the hospital.

Cyber attack investigation underway
A day after AIIMS was hit by the cyber attack, a case of extortion and cyber terrorism was registered by the Intelligence Fusion and Strategic Operations (IFSO) unit of the Delhi Police. Agencies including CERT-In, Delhi cybercrime special cell, Indian Cybercrime Coordination Centre, the Intelligence Bureau, the Central Bureau of Investigation, and the National Investigation Agency, are investigating the incident.

It is also reported that the team from the computer facility is conducting meetings and two analysts have been suspended for a data breach.

Cyber attack at Safdarjung hospital
Last week, Safdarjung Hospital also reported that it was hit by a cyber attack. “There was a cyberattack. Our server was also down in November for a single day, but data was secured. It was handled by IT, National informatics Centre (NIC) which revived the systems,” said Medical Superintendent Safdarjung Hospital Dr BL Sherwal.

What is Firewall? A Firewall is a network security device that monitors and filters incoming and outgoing network traffic based on an organization's previously established security policies. At its most basic, a firewall is essentially the barrier that sits between a private internal network and the public Internet.

 

Secure your network at the gateway against threats such as intrusions, Viruses, Spyware, Worms, Trojans, Adware, Keyloggers, Malicious Mobile Code (MMC), and other dangerous applications for total protection in a convenient, affordable subscription-based service. Modern threats like web-based malware attacks, targeted attacks, application-layer attacks, and more have had a significantly negative effect on the threat landscape. In fact, more than 80% of all new malware and intrusion attempts are exploiting weaknesses in applications, as opposed to weaknesses in networking components and services. Stateful firewalls with simple packet filtering capabilities were efficient blocking unwanted applications as most applications met the port-protocol expectations. Administrators could promptly prevent an unsafe application from being accessed by users by blocking the associated ports and protocols.
