“University of Michigan Health experienced problems with its public websites Monday as a result of a cyberattack on a vendor, according to a statement from the hospital system. “
“The problems are among other reports of similar cyberattacks at hospital systems around the United States and in other countries that have agreed to provide tanks to Ukraine, which was invaded by Russia nearly a year ago. “
““University of Michigan Health has been experiencing intermittent problems with its public websites as a result of a cyberattack on a third-party vendor we use to host some of our sites. We are working with the third party to mitigate it and expect to have our sites fully functional as soon as possible,” according to the statement from spokeswoman Mary Masson. “
“Free Press reporters tried to access the public websites for the University of Michigan Health and Mott Children’s Hospital Monday morning, but they wouldn’t load. Reporters saw messages that the sites couldn’t be reached. Another attempt showed a website with a plain page and links at the top. Cybersecurity tracker BetterCyber tweeted Monday that the hospital and health system websites were among several U.S. health care organization and hospital websites for which disturbed denial of service (DDoS) attacks were launched by the pro-Russian hacktivist group KillNet. “
