Boston Scientific discloses 'global disruption' in ongoing cyberattack
Boston Scientific disclosed an ongoing cyberattack that began on Tuesday and disrupted its global operations across IT systems and business applications. The company is investigating with third-party security experts but has not disclosed whether ransomware was involved, what data may have been stolen, or when systems will be fully restored. No group had claimed responsibility at the time of disclosure.
Why it matters: Healthcare organizations and patients depending on Boston Scientific devices face potential supply chain disruption and data exposure; practitioners should monitor for any ransom demands or data leak announcements and assess alternative supplier relationships.
