Quest Diagnostics Says Personal Health Information of 34,000 Customers Hacked (cbsnews.com)
Quest Diagnostics has said in a statement that a hack of an internet application on its network has exposed the personal health information of nearly 34,000 people. "Quest Diagnostics has notified affected individuals via mail and established a dedicated toll-free number to call with questions regarding this incident," the company said. CBS News reports: The Madison, New Jersey-based company says âoean unauthorized third partyâ on Nov. 26 gained access to customer information including names, dates of birth, lab results and in some instances, telephone numbers. The stolen data did not include Social Security numbers, credit card accounts, insurance details or any other financial information. Quest said Monday it is working with a cybersecurity firm and law enforcement to investigate the breach, while taking steps to prevent similar incidents from recurring. If you think you're affected by this hack, you can call (888) 320-9970.
You don't work in healthcare do you?
What the MD says is what you do. Unless you are willing to back it up with a thesis, which gets tiring.
Sure there may be some management that can make some decisions but those are only ones that don't directly affect the MDs
If something is so important that you feel the need to post it on the internet... It probably isn't that important.
