Gwinnett Medical Center investigating possible data breach |
Texte |
After being contacted by Salted Hash about a possible data breach, Gwinnett Medical Center(GMC), a not-for-profit network of healthcare providers in Gwinnett County, Georgia, has confirmed they're investigating what they're calling an IT incident.Salted Hash first became aware of a possible data breach at GMC late last week, but the exact details surrounding the incident were not immediately available.What we learned was that on Saturday (Sept. 29), IT staff at GMC Lawrenceville became aware of an incident involving several hundred patient records at the least. Immediately following the discovery, the alleged attackers sent threats.Sometime later, an agent from the local FBI field office arrived and offered to assist, but it isn't clear if the FBI knew something was wrong, or if the law enforcement agency was called in after the threats were made. |
