A data breach event occurred in December 2023 that affected St. Vincent's Health Australia.
With the assistance of outside security experts, St. Vincent's moved quickly to contain the issue by getting in touch with the relevant state and federal governments, the necessary authorities, and other relevant parties.
The organisation is looking into the deleted content after St. Vincent's found signs that hackers had removed specific data from their network.
Three key objectives are to secure and confine the event, understand the cybercriminals' actions, and find out what data has been accessed and taken.
