Another massive cyber-attack was underway against Slovakia, targeting state-owned health insurer Všeobecná zdravotná poisťovňa, PM Robert Fico and Health Minister Kamil Sasko told a press briefing on Friday, adding that it was detected on Friday around noon.
"The attack consisted of a huge number of attempts to obtain sensitive information from the insurance information sources, which concerned all personal data and, most importantly, related to all diagnoses, including already prepared or already performed procedures that the patient had undergone," said the Prime Minister.
Later on the same day, the insurer confirmed that there was no disruption to the infrastructure and the situation continues to be monitored.
