6 years ago

The computer systems at Hancock Regional Hospital are unusable after officials say they were hacked Thursday evening and are being held for ransom. A spokesperson for Hancock Regional Hospital in Greenfield said the hospital has not been able to use their computer systems since around 10 p.m. Thursday evening after an unknown party managed to shut down their computers and is now demanding payment to bring them back online.  The hospital has not paid the "ransom" and is working with local law enforcement to determine their next course of action.
