At Console & Associates, our data breach lawyers are closely examining the recent Risas Dental & Braces data breach. This breach was disclosed following a cyber security incident, which may have affected an unknown number of individuals, potentially exposing sensitive personal information.
A recent report from the Attorney General of California states that the Risas Dental & Braces was compromised due to a cyber security attack that was discovered on July 10, 2023 when Risas detected suspicious activity within its computer network. The company secured their systems and launched an investigation that confirmed that certain files and folders on its computer network may have been downloaded by an unauthorized party, including files containing confidential patient information. Data breach letters were sent out by Risas Dental & Braces on March 22, 2024 informing affected individuals about the nature of the incident and compromised data.
