March 24, 2026- Stryker is continuing to make progress on recovery efforts after a March 11 cyberattack that resulted in a disruption of its Microsoft systems, according to the Wall Street Journal. Stryker posted to its website early this week stating that the incident is contained and that the company is “prioritizing restoration of systems.” The medical technology provider said there is no indication that customers, suppliers, vendors or other partners were affected, according to the 8-K filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Palo Alto Networks Unit 42 assisted Stryker in conducting an analysis of its Microsoft environment, including Active Directory and Entra ID, according to Cybersecurity Dive. The report indicates hackers used a malicious file that allowed them to run commands while hiding their activities.
