Crozer-Keystone Health System

Crozer-Keystone Health System is a healthcare organization that operates a network of hospitals and provides medical services to residents in southeastern Pennsylvania, Delaware, and New Jersey. It delivers inpatient and outpatient care, including emergency services, surgical procedures, diagnostic imaging, and specialty clinics. As a health system, it integrates clinical operations across its facilities to coordinate patient care. The organization serves a diverse population across urban and suburban communities in the tri-state area. Its facilities include four hospitals that collectively offer a range of acute care services. The health system also supports community health initiatives and wellness programs.

Crozer-Keystone Health System is headquartered in the United States of America. In June 2020, the organization suffered a ransomware attack carried out by the NetWalker gang. The attackers exfiltrated primarily financial information and attempted to auction the stolen data on the darknet after the health system declined to pay the Bitcoin ransom. The incident occurred amid the COVID-19 pandemic, a period when many ransomware groups had pledged to avoid targeting healthcare providers. Crozer-Keystone did not publicly confirm whether patient records were compromised in the breach. The event is noted as a significant cybersecurity challenge faced by the health system during that time.
