The increase in DDoS attacks on healthcare organizations in the US in the last 48 hours by the Pro-Russian hacktivist group Killnet has become a serious concern. These types of attacks are designed to overload a network or system with traffic, making it difficult or impossible for users to access essential patient services. This can have a devastating impact on the healthcare sector, as medical professionals rely on access to patient data and systems to diagnose and treat patients effectively.
