"Ransomware Gang Collects Data from Blood Testing Lab"

Apex Laboratory has just disclosed that on July 25th, adversaries hit them with a ransomware attack.  Apex Laboratory provides blood work at home for patients in New York City, Long Island, and South Florida.  The forensic investigation ended on December 15th and determined that the attackers had gained access to patient data and had posted information on their blog about the attack.  According to Apex, the data the adversaries obtained include patient names, dates of birth, test results, and for some individuals, Social Security numbers, and phone numbers. The information was likely taken from Apex’s systems between July 21 and July 25 as part of a “double extortion” attack where criminals lock-up systems and exfiltrate data.
