SC Media: Rhysida Claims Responsibility for Ransomware Attacks on Prospect Medical Holdings
August 31, 2023
The ever-evolving Rhysida ransomware group has reportedly claimed responsibility for the cyberattack on Prospect Medical Holdings, which earlier this month experienced attacks at hospitals and medical facilities in four states that forced the company to take their systems down. Rhysida is not the first ransomware gang to take credit for an attack, said Emily Phelps, director at Cyware. “There is still much we don't know about this threat group, but as a fairly young group, they likely publicly take credit to garner support and grow their operations,” said Phelps.
