Incident Type: Security Breach
WASC Threat Classification: Misconfiguration
Personal information about 2,000 patients was mistakenly published on the hospital's web site. The leakage was discovered only when a patient found her information when "Googling" herself.
The information included personal data such as social security numbers, birth dates, address, phone number, insurance numbers and in some cases the reason for the visit.
