Forecast = Expect continued turbulence in the healthcare sector with a high chance of regulatory scrutiny and potential for scattered patient data leaks.

‍

On this episode of the Storm⚡️Watch we re-visits the Change Healthcare cyberattack which continues to have major impacts across the U.S. healthcare system. The attack, discovered in February 2024, was carried out by the ALPHV/BlackCat ransomware group and has disrupted healthcare operations nationwide. The breach potentially compromised sensitive data for up to one-third of the U.S. population, including personal information, health records, and financial data. Change Healthcare and UnitedHealth Group have faced criticism for their handling of the incident, including a delayed public disclosure. The attack has highlighted vulnerabilities in centralized healthcare data systems and the need for stronger cybersecurity measures industry-wide.

In the Tool Time segment, the hosts will discuss OpenSSF Siren, a new resource to help keep open source projects safe.

We close out the episode covering recent cybersecurity trends and active campaigns in the Tag Roundup section, as well as provide an update on known exploited vulnerabilities (KEVs) that organizations should be aware of.
