Kaiser Permanente, a leading healthcare organization, has reported a significant data breach affecting 13.4 million members, marking it as the largest healthcare-related data breach of 2024. The compromised information includes names, IP addresses, account interaction details, and navigational data on Kaiser's websites and mobile apps. The breach resulted from tracking code that shared data with third-party advertisers, including major tech companies like Google, Microsoft, and X (formerly Twitter). This incident has raised privacy concerns and prompted Kaiser to remove the tracking code and notify the affected individuals.
