Inc Ransom Claims 7TB Data Breach from Horizon Family Medical Group
On June 18, 2026, the ransomware group Inc Ransom asserted responsibility for a massive data breach targeting Horizon Family Medical Group, a healthcare provider serving New York’s Hudson Valley region. According to the threat actor’s post on the dark web monitoring site Ransomware.live, the stolen data includes approximately 7 terabytes of sensitive information, comprising:
- Medical records: Diagnoses, prescriptions, treatment histories, and lab results.
- SQL databases: Patient and corporate data.
- Financial records: QuickBooks databases containing detailed financial information.
The breach has not been officially confirmed by Horizon Family Medical Group, but legal investigations are underway. Attorneys are examining whether a class action lawsuit can be filed on behalf of affected individuals including current and former patients and employees who may face risks such as identity theft, financial fraud, or privacy violations. Potential claims could cover damages for lost privacy, out-of-pocket costs, and time spent mitigating the breach’s impact.
While the full scope of the incident remains unverified, the alleged theft underscores the growing threat of ransomware attacks targeting healthcare providers, where vast troves of personal and financial data make lucrative targets for cybercriminals. Further updates are expected as investigations progress.
