    Ransomware case. Hackensack Meridian Health paid an undisclosed amount in ransom to stop a cyber-attack that has disrupted the hospital owners computer network since it began last week, the company said Friday. The Edison-based company said it had insurance to help cover the costs associated with cyber-attacks, including payment, remediation and recovery efforts.
