Healthcare Behemoth Ascension Hit by Ransomware: Cyberattack Chaos Unfolds

When Ascension’s IT went “nope,” Google Mandiant played IT superhero. Suspected ransomware said, “Hello,” and healthcare ops got a chaotic makeover. Cue the cyber-saga! #AscensionCyberattack

Hot Take:

Well, it looks like Ascension just got a digital ascension of its own, courtesy of a cyberattack that's got them playing a high-stakes game of Operation. And it's not just any game—the ransomware variety, which is like playing with the buzzer on permanently. Let's just hope their IT team is more steady-handed than your Uncle Bob after three glasses of eggnog at Christmas.
