Houston Health Department

Houston Health Department suffered a massive data breach after a glitch in the system that exposed the COVID-19 test results and personal information of thousands of its residents.

The breach exposed 10,000 COVID results, including patient names, addresses, dates of birth, email addresses, testing dates and test results, which can be used for any malicious intent.

The department sent letters to the affected individuals notifying them of the incident and providing information about free identity protection services for one year.
