"At this point, I can confirm that we have received an incident report at this medical facility and are currently working on it. We will not comment on this anymore, "said NÚKIB spokesman Jiří Táborský. The daily N writes that, according to its information, the attack is not related to the vulnerability of Microsoft Exchange mail servers, which hackers recently used to attack the Prague City Hall or the Ministry of Labor and Social Affairs.
According to information from security companies, cyber attacks on medical facilities are on the rise. In the Czech Republic last year, hackers attacked, for example, the hospital in Benešov, the Ostrava and Olomouc teaching hospitals or the Karlovy Vary Regional Hospital. At the beginning of this year, an attack on the Internet was faced by a small domestic hospital. Last year's survey of the Ministry of Health among more than 160 hospitals in the Czech Republic found that they would need to invest more than four billion crowns in cyber security by 2023.
