9. The Qilin Ransomware Group vs The National Health Service
Manage episode 432026773 series 3550088
This episode of the podcast looks at the Qilin ransomware group's attack on the UK's National Health Service. Or - more accurately - their ransomware attack against Synnovis, a third party pathology testing organization for a number of London hospitals.
Guests Louise Ferrett and Joe Honey go through time timeline of the attack - discussing the group's history, whether to trust claims that the attack was politically motivated, and the reasoning behind leaking 400gb of stolen patient data.
This episode also looks at the state of ransomware half a year into 2024 - including where some of the biggest groups from last year have disappeared off to, new groups that security professionals should be aware of, and the diversification of ransomware landscape as more groups emerge than ever before.
