American Clinical Solutions: Over 400,000 Medical Records in the Hands of RansomHub

Posted on May 24, 2024 by Dissent

Marco A. De Felice  aka @amvinfe reports:

The RansomHub group made headlines last February when, following a cyberattack on Change Healthcare, they disrupted operations for several weeks. Change Healthcare is the largest U.S. provider of revenue and payment cycle management, connecting payers, providers, and patients within the American healthcare system. A week ago, a RansomHub affiliate successfully breached the systems of another major U.S. medical entity, American Clinical Solutions, LLC (ACS).

ACS is a provider of medication confirmation services, offering prescription and illicit narcotics testing to healthcare professionals and medical facilities nationwide, with its headquarters in Florida.

In mid-May, a RansomHub affiliate managed to infiltrate ACS’s computer systems, exfiltrating a total of over 700GB of data, as reported on the group’s blog.

Among these, over 35GB pertain to more than 400,000 medical records of patients who have undergone testing at the company’s laboratories.
