“We have taken a thorough approach in responding, from the initial response, to the lengthy period of data review, and now the notification process,” Ryan said. The HSE said it has been monitoring the internet including the web since the cyber-attack and has seen no evidence at this point that the illegally accessed and copied data has been used for any criminal purposes or been published online. This excludes a small amount of data which was referred to in an article in May 2021 by the Financial Times and subsequently removed from the web.

For the most part, people will be notified that a limited amount of information relating to them was illegally accessed and copied.
