“The nation’s spy agency has been scrambled in the aftermath of a crippling cyber-attack and ransom demand that has brought Waikato District Health Board services to their knees” -NZ Herald on 18th of May 2021.
“Cyber attack on Waikato DHB’s IT system won’t be fixed until the weekend”. –NZ Herald on 19th of May 2021.
 
You’ve read the headlines or listened to the news about Waikato DHB’s cyberattack and you probably know more about this incident than some staff who actually worked here. But let us tell you this, it wasn’t fixed even after that weekend!  Attend our presentation and we’ll be sharing with you an inside story of how it was in the perioperative complex during the cyberattack. It wasn’t easy but it was quite a journey.  It would be great to learn a thing or two on how to prevent a cyberattack. Afterall, cybercrime might become the biggest threat to every person, place, and thing in the world (Devon, 2020).
