Medical device maker Boston Scientific says a cyberattack is causing a ‘global disruption’ to its operations

Boston Scientific disclosed that a cyberattack on Tuesday disrupted access to its IT systems and business applications, halting order processing and shipments of its pacemakers, defibrillators and other implanted devices. The breach forced thousands of Cork employees to work from home, and the company, which serves roughly 48 million patients annually, has not provided a timeline for system restoration.
