BayMark Health Services Data Breach: A Painful Prescription for Privacy Concerns
BayMark Health Services, a major addiction treatment provider, has become the latest victim of a ransomware attack. Patient data, including Social Security numbers and treatment info, was stolen. While BayMark offers free identity protection, the Ransomhub group has already leaked the data. Talk about a treatment plan gone wrong!
Hot Take:
Looks like BayMark Health Services just got a crash course in “Ransomware 101” — and it’s not the kind of education you can get a degree for. Patients, brace yourselves for a year of identity protection that hopefully doesn’t include a pop quiz on whether your Social Security number is still safe!
Key Points:
- BayMark Health Services experienced a ransomware attack, leading to a data breach.
- Personal information of patients, including sensitive data, was accessed by attackers.
- BayMark operates over 380 programs across 35 states, treating more than 70,000 patients daily.
- The Ransomhub group claims to have stolen 1.5 terabytes of data.
- Impacted individuals are being offered a year of free identity protection services.
