At a Boston College cybersecurity conference
sponsored by Mintz, FBI Director Christopher Wray said that agents
this summer thwarted a planned attack on Boston Children’s
Hospital. Wray said that the FBI learned of the plan from “an
intelligence partner,” and “quick actions by everyone
involved, especially at the hospital, protected both the network
and the sick kids who depended on it.” Wray attributed the
plan to hackers sponsored by the Iranian government and described
its potential as “one of the most despicable cyberattacks
I’ve seen.”
