00:00 PhilHealth was able to regain control of their online system this weekend without paying a ransom.
00:05 They are also using an anti-virus software.
00:09 Mark Salazar was on the news.
00:11 PhilHealth signed their anti-virus software subscription on April 15,
00:20 which was not renewed immediately due to the government's careless procurement system.
00:25 But now, they have a temporary anti-virus software.
00:30 The virus was eradicated and this is what we are preparing to use by our colleagues.
00:39 Not all workstations were able to be used.
00:42 The National Privacy Commission said that this was possible due to the expired anti-virus software.
00:48 That's why a group's PhilHealth system was hacked using Medusa ransomware.
00:53 This is not PhilHealth's database but some other database that has the names of PhilHealth members.
01:03 This weekend, PhilHealth was able to regain control of their online system
01:08 without paying the ransom that the hackers are asking for, which is worth P17 million.
01:15 Because they were not able to get any information, they will try to monetize the information by selling the information to scammers.
01:22 The possible data that was compromised contains names, addresses, date of birth, sex, phone number, and the PIN of the PhilHealth identification number of the members.
01:38 The government's unrestrained priority on cybersecurity is at the center of the discussion.
01:45 The DICT's P1 billion budget in 2022 became P600 million this year and P300 million in 2024.
01:56 The DOJ also complained that the budget is being stretched to only P200 million for their 20 cyber operatives.
02:05 90 percent of the crimes today are cybercrime content. We are not hearing anyone entering the bank to hold a gun.
02:14 What's happening is that our computers and phones are being stolen.
02:19 A senator said that the Department of Agriculture can avoid the confidential funds of P50 million.
02:26 For Jemmy Integrated News, Mark Salazar, Nakatutok 24 Hours.
