This data breach was disclosed following a cyber security incident at MDLand, which may have affected as many as 63,052 individuals, potentially exposing sensitive personal identifiable information.

 

What Happened?

A recent report from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Office for Civil Rights states that the MDLand data breach occurred due to a hacking/IT security incident. The unauthorized intrusion affected portions of the company's IT network, compromising patient electronic medical records. While the full scope of the breach is still under investigation, MDLand has confirmed unauthorized access to their systems.
