Pro-Iran hackers hit US medical device giant Stryker in shocking cyberattack after Israel strikes

A suspected cyberattack linked to pro-Iranian hackers has shaken the global healthcare technology sector after targeting Stryker Corporation, one of the world’s largest manufacturers of medical devices used in hospitals and operating rooms. A company statement reported the attack on the major US medical device maker, as it disrupted the company’s internal systems and wiped access to thousands of corporate devices worldwide.

Investigators believe the intrusion may be connected to escalating geopolitical tensions between Iran, Israel and the United States, raising concerns that cyber warfare is becoming an increasingly common tool in modern conflicts.
