Therapeutic Health Services (THS) recently informed affected individuals about a data breach that occurred on February 26, 2024. The breach involved unauthorized activity on THS’s computer network, potentially compromising personal or medical information. THS has reported that up to 14,164 individuals might have been impacted by this incident.
The compromised data may include full names, Social Security numbers, dates of birth, details regarding medical services provided by THS, and other health-related information. The notification from THS does not specify whether Social Security numbers were encrypted, which raises concerns about the security of this sensitive data.
THS is still investigating the breach to understand the extent of the unauthorized access and the specific types of information affected. The organization has begun notifying impacted individuals and is offering support to help mitigate any potential risks resulting from the breach.
While THS has taken steps to address the situation, the lack of clarity about encryption raises questions about the adequacy of their data protection measures. Affected individuals are advised to monitor their accounts for any unusual activity and take necessary precautions to safeguard their personal information.
