Stryker staff jumped in fast to contain damage

Right after the attack, Stryker staff jumped in fast—disconnecting devices to stop things from getting worse.
Some electronic systems went down for safety, but thankfully, their medical devices kept running.

The incident is another reminder that cyber threats are getting bigger as global tensions rise, and that even healthcare tech isn't off-limits anymore.
