A massive ransomware attack hit the Hipocrate Information System used by Romanian hospitals on 11–12 February 2024, encrypting databases (Backmydata/Phobos) and forcing roughly 100 hospitals to take systems offline—25 confirmed with encrypted data—while staff reverted to paper records; attackers demanded 3.5 BTC, DNSC reports most hospitals have recent backups and there is currently no evidence of data exfiltration.
