1) The file was recovered, and the contents added to the enquiry
2) The police got complimented for a very large technical (successful) effort in tracing down the missing data.
If you want to feel worse again:
1) They ain’t got a Scooby Doo who tried to delete it, and likely never will have.

This is appalling. My son is starting as a junior Doctor in August after busting his arse for 5 years. I hope he doesn’t get dragging into this kind of thing.

A bit of a shambles in its own right that they’ve got patient medical data and no audit logging of who has accessed or modified them. Infosec 101.

Worst thing about modern cloud infrastructure is SAS tokens and anonymous access is often more convenient than using properly audited access controls. It’s the default configuration in many cases.
It’s kinda one of those things that’s been a massive downgrade in modern times. Proper old fashioned databases and file transfer systems wouldn’t work unless you’re using a service account or something far more specific to an individual user, at the very least you’d know who gave out their passwords/ email.

It’s not either / or – if something is malicious, it must also be intentional.
