Precision Imaging Center

The Precision Imaging Center experienced a data breach on November 2, 2022, due to an external system hacking incident, as reported by the Maine Office of the Attorney General on June 27, 2023. The breach exposed sensitive information of 31,010 individuals, including 4 Maine residents. While the exact type of compromised data was not fully detailed, the breach likely involved personal and possibly medical information, given the nature of the business (imaging center). Affected individuals were notified on June 22, 2023, and offered 24 months of identity theft protection services via IDX to mitigate risks of fraud or misuse. The delay between the breach and disclosure (over 7 months) raises concerns about potential exploitation of the exposed data during that period. The incident underscores vulnerabilities in healthcare-related systems, where patient confidentiality is critical.
