Privacy Commissioner John Edwards is warning DHBs to make sure their IT systems are up scratch

His office has been officially notified of the Waikato DHB ransomware attack and is closely monitoring the situation - and giving advisory support.

Edwards says any DHB found to have inadequate security may face Privacy Act notices and potential prosecution.
