Synnovis aka Synlab, a key NHS frontline service supplier, has been hit by ransomware.

Kevin Beaumont

You’re going to see some incredible media bias with the Synnovis ransomware incident as it impacts southern hospitals - whereas NHS Dumfries and Galloway are several months into their ongoing ransomware incident and barely any coverage.

As predicted there continues to be rolling media coverage. It is also on many reporters doorsteps, but attacks on the NHS are sadly not new.

It is indeed Qilin ransomware group, I have the ransom note.

The same company involved got hit by Black Basta recently.

Qilin ransomware group have been removed from Telegram.

@GossiTheDog the fallout is totally different - at my hospital we have cancelled all surgery and planned procedures except life threatening emergencies. the d&g incident didn’t directly affect care provision

@GossiTheDog Cool. Hopefully my local scam artists and meth dealers are next.
