Multiple Healthcare Data Breaches Reported in the US

Tallahassee Memorial Healthcare announced that a hacker obtained personal information for about 20,000 patients, including social security numbers, medical record numbers, health insurance information, patient account numbers, names, addresses, and dates of birth. The hacker intermittently accessed the files between January 26 and February 2 before being detected. The hospital system contained the attack and contacted law enforcement. No financial account or payment card information was accessed, and electronic medical records were not involved. The hospital is offering complimentary credit monitoring and identity protection services to those affected.
