The non-profit Memorial Healthcare System, a small network of hospitals in Ohio, fell victim to one of Hive’s attacks in the summer of 2021. The attack notably took place in the midst of the Covid-19 pandemic, when cases were particularly bad in Ohio. The attack also disrupted and delayed scheduled medical procedures. To add insult to injury, Bleeping Computer reported that Hive had stolen the personal information of some 200,000 patients.
