Hackers have allegedly gained access to email accounts containing protected health information and Social Security numbers at iRise Florida Spine and Joint Institute.

The iRise Florida Spine and Joint Institute says that the protected health information of 61,595 patients has been compromised due to an attack back in February 2021.

A data breach investigation concluded that the following types of information may have been stolen in the attack:

• Names
• Dates of birth
• Diagnoses
• Clinical treatment information
• Physician and/or hospital name
• Dates of service
• Health insurance information
• Social Security numbers
• Driver’s license numbers
• Financial account information
• Credit card numbers
• Usernames and passwords

A data breach typically occurs in malware, phishing attacks or ransomware attacks when a hacker or cybercriminal gains access to sensitive personal information that has been collected and stored on a company’s servers. Hackers often target organizations with weak or outdated security practices.

Once the information is obtained, it can be sold to third parties to use in identity theft or other fraudulent data theft schemes. Victims of data breaches are at an increased risk of identity theft and financial losses.
