U.S. Says Concerned by Threat of Cyber Attack Against Czech Republic Healthcare

The United States is concerned by the threat of a cyber attack against the Czech Republic's healthcare sector, U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said on Friday, adding that anybody engaged in such activity should "expect consequences."

Two hospitals in the Czech Republic reported attempted attacks on their computer systems on Friday, a day after the country's cybersecurity watchdog said it expected a wave of cyberattacks on the country's critical infrastructure.



Two+ more hospitals were attacked since then and other hospitals are preparring for possible attacks.

I don't understand why attacks coming in days like these and why against CZ? Why Pompeo feel need to comment that. Is there more in play??

Are attacks reported in more countries?
