How did the writer made all this up? They didn't have budget to pay for an expert's consultation?
First, Lea doesn't have a cybersecurity background. She was a software developer and she likes/fixes cars. And from one day to the other she's a Ransomware expert? I'm mean to do what she did in the time she did it, she's a fu***ken genius, 10 years of experience working on the field at least. But not only that, she's also a Network expert, how many years she's been in the hospital, 10 years? BUT NOT ONLY THAT, she's also a computer forensic DIE HARD. She fixed the hard drive by herself, with no previous experience, for that job a company would charge 10,000 dollars to fix it in one day. In my country (Chile) there are 2 companies that provide this type of service, 2 in the entire country! . But, probably they thought: 'well, she fixes cars, maybe she can fix a hard drive' But that type of equipment cannot be found in a hospital! (hey boss, let's expend 10,000 dollars to fix our servers hard drive (the failure was also stupid AF) is easy to do it, any developer or car mechanic can do it!) But not only that! She works alone! This awesome hospital only has 1 IT manager/network wiz, developer, computer forensic expert, ransomware expert. But when she was hospitalized she looked more like a ticket manager (probably looking into spreadsheets) .
It' so disappointing, they could have ask on StackOverFlow or even Reddit (/Defcon for instance) for some advice on the history line.
