FL: NCH Healthcare System investigating impact of phishing attack

Posted on August 15, 2019 by Dissent

Liz Freeman reports:

The NCH Healthcare System is investigating a data security breach in which an unauthorized entity gained access to some employees’ email accounts, according to hospital officials.

NCH became aware June 14 of suspicious activity related to its payroll system and launched an investigation.

Read more on Naples Daily News.  NCH’s notice on their web site does not make clear whether any of the affected employee email accounts might have held patient data. I would guess that that is still under investigation, but as of the time of this posting, there had been no statement that any patient data were impacted.
