Arizona Department of Health Services

The Arizona Department of Health Services suffered from a data breach incident that exposed 2,500 individuals and families with newborn baby data.

The compromised information includes health information for children tested in the program and their mothers, as well as their addresses, birth dates, health-insurance records, names, phone numbers, and Social Security numbers.

They took preventive steps to avoid such mishaps in the future, including the possibility of using a secure website for the digital transfer of protected health and billing records.
