Multiple Organization Data Breaches

The folks over at Websense have released a disclosure:

Westerly Hospital. Westerly, Rhode Island

Medical records of 2,000 Westerly Hospital patients leaked to the internet. The Information included names, Social Security numbers and medical records about patients’ surgical procedures and medical histories, as well as people’s home addresses and insurance information.

The protocol was HTTP and that data was PHI (e.g. patient records).

Los Rios community college. Sacramento CA

Private information including names, birth date and Social Security number on about 2,000 Los Rios students leaked to the internet when staff members were testing a new online application system and, according to the school spokeswoman , “just grabbed some files” to upload.

The protocol was HTTP and the data was NPI (e.g. customer data).
