Medical Sciences (AIIMS) servers have been down for approximately six consecutive days as cybercriminals have been attempting to hack into its digital services and are suspected of compromising the data of scores of patients. As a result of the hack, cybercriminals are reportedly demanding Rs 200 crore in cryptocurrency.

During the downtime, basic services at AIIMS, such as patient admission, transfers, and laboratory work, have been handled manually. It was directed last week that hospital staff prepare important certificates manually too.
