Statement regarding LockBit claims
Earlier this morning we became aware of tweets from LockBit, the cyber-criminal gang, claiming that they had compromised Darktrace’s internal security systems and had accessed our data. Our security teams have run a full review of our internal systems and can see no evidence of compromise. None of the LockBit social media posts link to any compromised Darktrace data. We will continue to monitor the situation extremely closely, but based on our current investigations we are confident that our systems remain secure and all customer data is fully protected.

Belgium's Largest Hospital Uses Darktrace AI
Darktrace, the world’s leading AI company for cyber defense, has today announced that UZ Leuven, Belgium’s largest hospital, has deployed cyber AI at the core of its digital infrastructure to protect patient data from sophisticated and targeted attacks.
With five sites, nearly 9,000 employees, and treating 4,000 patients a day, UZ Leuven also manages a centralized patient record software (nexuzhealth) used by 50% of hospitals in Flanders, the biggest region in Belgium. As a result, the hospital needed the ability to detect genuine threats emerging across its complex environment.
If UZ Leuven was hit by a cyber-attack, this would impact half of the hospitals across Flanders, interrupting critical care and potentially exposing the public’s medical data for anyone to see,” commented Reinoud Reynders, IT Manager at UZ Leuven. “With Darktrace, we trust in AI to catch sophisticated threats on the inside. In turn, our patients have greater confidence in our ability to keep their personal data safe and provide services they can rely on.”
