"Oracle" warns health sector clients not to penetrate the patient data

Pirates succeeded in penetrating the Oracle computer systems and stealing data for patients, as part of an attempt to repel a number of health care providers in the United States, according to what a person who is familiar with the case mentioned, and based on an official notice that sent the software business to his clients. ‘Oracle’ reported earlier this month that he had informed a number of its clients in the healthcare sector that the electronic attack took place after January 22, when the Pirates managed to reach the company’s servers and copy ill data to an external terrain, according to the notice that ‘Bloomberg’ was seen. Oracle offers software solutions to manage patient treads used by hospitals, doctors and other companies working in the medical field. The FBI is investigating this penetration, as well as in the pirate to repel medical enterprises to pay a ransom, according to what the informed person spoke on condition that his identity is not disclosed because he did not obtain permission to talk about the continued investigation. The number of patient records seized is still unknown. The total number of healthcare providers has not yet been determined. Oracle, based in Austin, Texas, did not respond immediately to request the remark, while a FBI spokesman refused to comment. Piracy affects patients in 2022, Oracle acquired Cerner, who specializes in electronic health records, for $ 28 billion, and then announced its plans to update the old software business, including customer transferring to Cloud Computing Services. The customer base contains large hospital chains, small clinics and government facilities. The acquisition included a prominent contract worth 16 billion dollars with the Ministry of Old Warriors issues, but the system operated under this contract was witness to technical crashes that received a wide cover, and underwent an audit by legislators. ‘Oracle’ informed his clients that the Pirates were able to penetrate the old servers of ‘Serner’, and that the stealing of data had not yet been transferred to his Wolkberg platform, according to what was said in the notice. The notice states that the available evidence indicates that the threat has illegally permeated the system environment using stolen credit data from clients. The company added that it discovered this offense on February 20. The notice indicated that the stolen data included information from the electronic medical records of patients. While the person familiar with the penetration details confirms that the stolen data contains recent records for patients. Oracle informed his clients that it would provide the necessary support to help review data and identify the patients affected by the attack. On the other hand, a spokesperson for the Ministry of the Veterans confirmed that the ministry had not been influenced by this incident.
