My debut on RTE Radio 1 – the HSE ransomware attack
Today
I had the privilege to be a guest on one of the most popular national
radio shows in Ireland – RTE Radio News At One with Bryan Dobson.
I spoke briefly about the Conti ransomware attack that crippled the HSE a couple of days ago. I also mentioned the submission to the National Security Strategy program that I authored back in December 2019 (and why it feels now that nothing has been done).
The US Department of Health and Human Services experienced what appeared to be an unprecedented
electronic attack just as Covid-19 began wreaking havoc worldwide. Now, the department's former
Chief Information Officer is stepping forward to reveal previously unknown details about the size,
scope and aims of what he called a nation-state level assault.
