Synnovis, which provides services to NHS trusts and GP services, primarily in south-east London, was the victim of a cyber attack on June 3.

Data from a ransomware attack on NHS provider Synnovis has been confirmed as having come from the service, NHS England has said.

It said: “NHS England continues to work with Synnovis and the National Crime Agency to respond to the criminal ransomware attack on Synnovis systems. “At present, Synnovis has confirmed there is no evidence the cyber criminals have published a copy of the database where patient test requests and results are stored, although their investigations are ongoing.”

NHS England said: “Investigations of this type are complex and can take time. Given the complexity of the investigation it may be some weeks before it is clear which individuals have been impacted.”
