At Console & Associates, our data breach lawyers are closely examining the recent OrthoMinds data breach. This data breach was disclosed following a cyber security incident at OrthoMinds, involving unauthorized access to their network server that potentially exposed sensitive personal information of an undisclosed number of individuals.

What Happened?

A recent report from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Office for Civil Rights states that the OrthoMinds data breach occurred due to a "Hacking / IT incident" affecting a network server. While the specific types of compromised information have not been disclosed in the HHS-OCR filing, it is noted that sensitive consumer data was subject to unauthorized access. The incident may have originated either directly at OrthoMinds or through one of their business partners or vendors.

Data breach letters are being sent out by OrthoMinds following their January 24, 2025 filing, informing affected individuals about the nature of the incident and details of any compromised data specific to each recipient.
