Iran-linked hacktivist group Handala claims responsibility for a data-wiping attack on Stryker, a major medical technology company. The attack forced the shutdown of Stryker's global operations, impacting over 200,000 devices and disrupting supply chains for healthcare providers. The group stated the action was retaliation for a missile strike in Iran that killed many civilians. The incident has raised concerns about cybersecurity in the healthcare sector, as hospitals consider disconnecting from Stryker's services amid the attack.
