Council on Aging (COA)

Council on Aging of Southwestern Ohio (COA) suffered a security issue in which an employee’s e-mail account was targeted and accessed by an unknown outside entity.

COA immediately launched a thorough investigation and discovered that one file containing protected health information (PHI) was accessed.

The accessed file contained data which may have included clients’ names, birth dates, addresses, Medicaid numbers, diagnoses information, treatment notes, and related referral or intake forms.

COA immediately worked on the incident and intrusion was caught and stopped, and the account fully secured, within minutes.
