A “Zeppelin” ransomware attack has cripped the Waikato DHB, and the health minister says it could take weeks to resurrect 680 computer servers. He planned to travel to Hamilton on Friday to meet health board leaders. And there was nothing that could be done to prevent the spread of stolen data, Little said. Each district health board’s system was separate from others, and no other health board had been infected by the ransomware, Little said. The health board was working through about 680 computer servers that needed to be sanitised, restored, and brought back online, he said.
