Federal prosecutors charged [Vikas] Singla in 2021 with hacking offenses - in an 18-count indictment. They say that Singla conducted a cyberattack in September 2018 that affected two hospitals of Gwinnett Medical Center. The attack allegedly disrupted the medical system's Ascom phone service, obtained information from a Hologic R2 digitizing device, and disrupted a Lexmark printer network, in part for "commercial advantage and private financial gain." Fifteen of the charges against Singla stem from the Lexmark printer disruption.
