Helix laboratory cyberattack delays delivery of patient test results
A mid-July 2023 cyberattack affected the Russian HELIX laboratory network and online systems. Website, application and electronic-health disruptions prevented customers from receiving diagnostic results on time, with partial restoration underway by 17 July; the company described an attempted ransomware infection rather than confirming successful encryption.
