Cyber Nightmare: BlackCat Ransomware Strikes UHG’s Optum, Paralyzes Pharmacy Payments

BlackCat ransomware purrs its way through Optum’s servers, clawing out a whopping 6TB of sensitive data. Change Healthcare’s platform is now on a digital diet, as pharmacies nationwide scramble to find plan B.

Hot Take:

Well, well, well, if it isn't the new cat on the block, BlackCat, flexing its claws on the grand ol' tree of healthcare data. They've dropped a data bomb on Change Healthcare, and it's raining personal information. It’s like they've grabbed the healthcare industry by the scrubs and are demanding their lunch money. Moral of the story? Even the biggest fish in the healthcare pond can't swim away from the ransomware shark.
