"Healthcare Technology Provider Omnicell Discloses Ransomware Attack"

Healthcare technology company Omnicell revealed in a filing with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) that it recently fell victim to a ransomware attack.  Omnicell is an American multinational company that manufactures systems for automated medication management at healthcare facilities and patient engagement software for pharmacies.  The company noted that some of its internal systems were impacted by a ransomware attack on May 4, 2022.  The company stated that the attack impacted some of the company’s products and services and some of its internal systems.  While it has already informed law enforcement and contacted cybersecurity experts to investigate the incident, Omnicell hasn’t yet determined the extent of the attack.  Omnicell did not provide further information on the ransomware used in the attack and didn’t say whether the attackers stole any corporate or personal information.  The FBI earlier this year noted that the public health sector was the most targeted by ransomware last year.
