A team of National Informatics Centre (NIC) working at AIIMS are reporting the “ransomware” attack for investigations by appropriate law enforcement authorities.

Several hospital staff tweeted after the server stopped working and patients were standing in queues and complaining about the delay. Some of them tweeted that they were not able to generate barcode to send samples, and were not able to see imaging reports. A hospital staff claimed that the work which was just a click away took more time as everything was being done manually.

“All basic details of the patients are being written manually. In fact reports and being sent manually, which takes a lot of time,” said a hospital staff, adding that it was a chaos in the institute on Wednesday.

What is Firewall? A Firewall is a network security device that monitors and filters incoming and outgoing network traffic based on an organization's previously established security policies. At its most basic, a firewall is essentially the barrier that sits between a private internal network and the public Internet.

 

Secure your network at the gateway against threats such as intrusions, Viruses, Spyware, Worms, Trojans, Adware, Keyloggers, Malicious Mobile Code (MMC), and other dangerous applications for total protection in a convenient, affordable subscription-based service. Modern threats like web-based malware attacks, targeted attacks, application-layer attacks, and more have had a significantly negative effect on the threat landscape. In fact, more than 80% of all new malware and intrusion attempts are exploiting weaknesses in applications, as opposed to weaknesses in networking components and services. Stateful firewalls with simple packet filtering capabilities were efficient blocking unwanted applications as most applications met the port-protocol expectations. Administrators could promptly prevent an unsafe application from being accessed by users by blocking the associated ports and protocols.
