Alaska Discloses 'Sophisticated' Nation-State Cyberattack on Health Service
A nation-state cyber-espionage group has gained access to the IT network of the Alaska Department of Health and Social Service (DHSS), the agency said last week. From a report: The attack, which is still being investigated, was discovered on May 2, earlier this year, by a security firm, which notified the agency. While the DHSS made the incident public on May 18 and published two updates in June and August, the agency did not reveal any details about the intrusion until last week, when it officially dispelled the rumor that this was a ransomware attack. Instead, the agency described the intruders as a "nation-state sponsored attacker" and "a highly sophisticated group known to conduct complex cyberattacks against organizations that include state governments and health care entities."Read more of this story at Slashdot.
