Paul Reid, the chief executive of the HSE, said that the attackers were “an internationally operated criminal operation," the Irish Timesreported. No ransom demand has been made at this stage, he said.
Reid also clarified that equipment in hospitals wasn't affected by the hack, nor was the system for COVID-19 vaccinations; however, the system for radiological imaging has been impacted.
