A US optometry group has disclosed a data breach related to unauthorized activity on internal email accounts.
Oregon Eye Specialists, which runs six clinics throughout Portland, said the exposed data includes customers’ names and one or more of the following: dates of birth, dates of service, medical record numbers, financial account information, and health insurance provider names and/or policy numbers.
After it “identified unusual activity in an email account” on August 10, 2021, the eye-care provider said it “reset account passwords and implemented additional security measures to further protect information”, according to a data breach alert published on October 8.
