Computer viruses and malware ‘rampant’ in medical tech, experts warn
High-risk medical technology has been found to be infected by computer viruses and malware, health and security experts have said.
They fear that the virus infections could become so severe that a patient may end up getting harmed.
Out-dated computer systems which were not able to be changed were to blame for the vulnerabilities, the experts said.
One US hospital is said to be deleting viruses from up to two machines a week.
