A cyberattack on the University of New Mexico’s Health Sciences Center has kept classes cancelled across its medicine, nursing and pharmacy faculties for a second day, The Register reports. Hospital appointments and clinics have resumed, but the university’s recovery is continuing in phases.
Why it mattersThe university says it contained the incident and brought in external partners and law enforcement. It has not described the attack; a ransomware group’s claim of responsibility remains unconfirmed. For now, the confirmed disruption is enough to matter, without promoting a criminal gang’s boast to fact.
Discuss: When a cyberattack disrupts university healthcare and teaching, should restoring clinical services take priority over getting classes back, or should both be treated as equally urgent?
