The Hospital for Sick Children — which was hit in a ransomware incident in 2022 that disabled some of its systems — released a statement on Thursday warning of a data theft incident they believe is tied to a third-party software application.
The statement came a day after a hacking group calling itself Black Spark claimed it had spent more than a month inside Microolap’s network and gained access to its internal systems, including EtherSensor, the company's network traffic analysis platform.
In a letter on Wednesday, Sens. Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) and Richard Blumenthal (D-CT) criticized the company for having “knowingly withheld a critical safety measure for millions of American users."
