DaVita announced it had become aware of a ransomware incident that encrypted some elements of its network. The dialysis firm promptly implemented measures to limit the effect of the breach and restore affected systems.
The cyberattack caused a temporary disruption of DaVita's operations. While the company stressed that patient care was continuing, it could not estimate the duration or full extent of the disruption at the time of the announcement.
DaVita discovered the cyberattack on a Saturday and immediately began assessing the incident with the assistance of third-party cybersecurity professionals. The measures taken included separating some impacted systems from its broader network to contain the breach.
