KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 15 — All major operational systems, as well as the Ministry of Health’s (MOH) healthcare and patient treatment services, remain unaffected and are operating as usual following a cybersecurity incident detected on Thursday (Nov 12).

MOH said in a statement posted on Facebook today that the public can continue with healthcare appointments and treatment at its facilities without cause for concern.

The ministry said the incident was limited to unauthorised access to a support file storage and sharing platform at one of its facilities.

“An initial investigation by MOH’s Computer Security Incident Response Team (CSIRT) found that the incident did not involve the encryption of the ministry’s main databases,” the statement said.
