Recent healthcare data breaches writeup in Darkreading…
Posted by Ed in Analysis on Aug 16, 2010
So, if you don’t read it regularly, check out the recent coverage over at Dark Reading on some of the recent healthcare breaches and the lessons learned.
This writer did a really good job, I think, of pulling out the biggest and most-impactful breaches that occurred within the past few months. Lincoln is on here as is South Shore (the one in Mass, not the other one as depicted in the attached image). If we’re right about the fact that healthcare has a new respect for the mandates to disclose as we outlined last week in this blog, then these are not isolated incidents and the trend will continue.
Anyway, I highly recommend checking out the coverage. I also recommend, if you have time, doing a bit of digging on the actual incidents referenced. We’ve covered a few of them here, but it’s useful to see that other people are keeping track as well.
