[QUOTE="509322, post: 674240"] I was at a hospital today that got smacked by EB\DB\WannaCry. WannaCry killed their patient information system, the phone system, the medication tracking & dispensing system, internet connected medical equipment, along with all their servers & workstations. The younger staff members who only know digital, and not pencil-and-paper, did not know how to cope when it happened. Since the phone system was borked, they could not make any "Code Blue" calls over the PA system and the staff had to physically run downstairs to the Intensive Care department to locate a response team member. Information required to perform safe surgeries was inaccessible. There is no longer a paper-based backup system in-place. After systems clean-up the hospital was offered multiple solutions - because no single solution could protect the full range and complexity of a hospital's digital protection needs. The hospital administration refused every single solution offered. Explanation ? None given, but you can pretty much guess a single word explains it - money. [/QUOTE]
