Stryker, a medical device manufacturer, experienced a cyberattack following US and Israel airstrikes on Iran, with a group aligned with the Iranian government claiming responsibility. The attack led to a global network disruption in Stryker's Microsoft environment, affecting phones and computers of employees. The company confirmed that the incident did not involve ransomware or malware and is contained within the internal Microsoft environment. While critical medical devices like Lifepak, Lifenet, and Mako are functioning normally, Stryker has not provided a timeline for full recovery.
