Healthcare technology firm Craneware, which provides software to hospitals, clinics and pharmacies across the US, has disclosed a cyberattack in which hackers stole customer and employee data.
The Company’s incident response plan has been activated, including the appointment by the Board of external cyber security and forensic specialists. Their investigation is ongoing, alongside the Craneware IT team and the Company’s retained cyber security service providers.
The incident has been contained and there has been no disruption to customer services or to the Company’s operations. The external specialists have confirmed that there are no residual indicators of compromise arising from the cyber security incident in the Company’s systems
Jeff Hamm, Solutions Architect at Binalyze had this comment:
“Craneware’s disclosure is a reminder that an incident isn’t defined solely by whether systems stay online. Once data has been accessed and exfiltrated, the priority shifts to understanding exactly what happened, what information was affected, and what the downstream risk is for customers and partners.
“The next few days will be about evidence. Regulators, customers and investors will all want clear answers, but those answers have to come from a thorough forensic investigation, not early assumptions. Organizations need to establish what data was accessed, whether the attacker achieved persistence, and whether there is any ongoing risk to connected systems.
“There is currently no indication that customer environments have been compromised, but any exposure of customer or partner information can increase the risk of highly targeted phishing, credential theft and other follow-on attacks. This is why incident response isn’t just about restoring operations. It’s about giving leadership the confidence that decisions are being made from evidence, and giving customers confidence that the organization understands the full scope of the incident.”
Honestly, if an environment has been pwned, it’s bad news. Everyone needs to do everything possible to make sure that they are not the next victim. Otherwise bad things will happen.
