26 Mar 2025 Advanced Computer Software Group LtdICO: £3 million against NHS service provider Advanced after ransomware without MFA €3.68m
Advanced, a processor for the NHS and care providers, was attacked with ransomware in August 2022 via a customer account without multi-factor authentication; services such as NHS 111 were disrupted. Data on 79,404 people was stolen, including instructions on how to gain entry to the homes of 890 people receiving care at home.
MFA must apply to every single access point without gaps – one unprotected account is enough for attackers.
