Healthcare data breach exposes 3.75M patient records

You can be careful with your passwords and still get caught in a breach at a company you may have never heard of.

That is one of the frustrating parts of the CareCloud data breach.

More than 3.75 million people had personal information and medical records stolen after hackers gained access to a CareCloud cloud environment earlier this year.

CareCloud provides electronic medical record technology and other services to tens of thousands of healthcare providers across the U.S.

So, even if you never created a CareCloud account, a doctor's office or another healthcare provider could have used its technology to handle your information.

Now, we are getting a much clearer picture of just how much information hackers took.
