However, the damage was not as severe as it had been for the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) hospital. “There was a cyberattack. Our server was also down in November for a single day, but data was secured. It was handled by IT, National informatics Centre (NIC) which revived the systems,” said Medical Superintendent Safdarjung Hospital Dr BL Sherwal.

What was the issue
The officials said that unlike AIIMs cyberattack on Safdarjung Hospital was not ransomware attack and that the hospital’s IP was blocked.
