Cyber Attacks on U.S. Healthcare

Sen Peters on Catastrophic Cyber Attacks on U.S. Healthcare Systems.

Sen. Gary Peters (D-Mich.) led a Senate Homeland Security Committee hearing on cybersecurity cyber attacks and the challenges to the U.S. healthcare systems on Thursday.

Peters recalled a catastrophic ransom attack in Mobile, Alabama in 2019. “The attack prevented healthcare providers from using an equipment to monitor a baby’s condition during delivery. And as a result, the infant tragically passed away,” he said.
