"Capital Health Attack Claimed by LockBit Ransomware, Risk of Data Leak"

The LockBit ransomware operation has recently claimed responsibility for a November 2023 cyberattack on the Capital Health hospital network and threatens to leak stolen data and negotiation chats by tomorrow.  Capital Health is a primary healthcare service provider in New Jersey and parts of Pennsylvania, operating two major hospitals and several satellite and specialty clinics.  Last November, the organization experienced an IT systems outage following a cyberattack on its network, warning that the incident would impact its operations for at least a week.  The Capital Health website informs that all systems have been restored and operations have returned to normal, while additional security measures have been implemented to prevent similar incidents from re-occurring.  Capital Health's latest updates indicate they are still investigating whether data was stolen in the cyberattack.  LockBit ransomware group claims to have stolen seven terabytes of sensitive medical data.
