Veradigm warns of patient data breach after ransomware gang claims attack

Veradigm is warning patients of a data breach after a ransomware gang claimed responsibility for an attack. The vector is a recurring one: the build passes every check, the signed artifact ships clean, and then something pulled in at runtime — a dependency, a tool call, a library loaded on execution — is the actual point of compromise. Patient records are now in threat actor hands because of what the software did after it deployed, not what it looked like before.

This is increasingly the pattern in healthcare and fintech breaches. Static analysis, SAST, and supply chain attestation cover what was true at build time. They say nothing about what actually executes at runtime, what network calls a process makes, what files it touches, or whether the behavior of a live workload drifts from what was reviewed. The gap between 'we audited the code' and 'we know what ran in production' is where these incidents live.

For those running sensitive workloads — healthcare, financial, anything with regulated data — how are you actually closing that gap? Not at the pipeline level, but at the point where something is actively executing and touching data. What does your runtime visibility actually look like, and has it caught anything that pre-deploy checks missed?
