A cyberattack has targeted a blood-donation nonprofit that provides services to hundreds of hospitals in the southeastern United States. The incident, suspected to be a ransomware attack, has raised concerns about the organization's ability to serve hospitals in the region.
The hack has caused an 'outage' in the software system of OneBlood, the nonprofit in question, affecting its capacity to ship blood products to hospitals in Florida. In response to the disruption, OneBlood has resorted to manually labeling blood products as it works to recover from the cyber incident.
