NEW LONDON New London Hospital experienced a data breach revealing patient names, demographic information and Social Security numbers last summer, the hospital announced this week.
An investigation determined it was “the target of a cyber incident” in which a third party gained access to a file on the hospital’s network on July 30, the hospital said in a notice posted to its website.
“Cyber-crimes targeting hospitals are at an all-time high and NLH continues to implement appropriate safeguards to protect patient information,” hospital CEO Tom Manion said in the post.
