Wise Health System

Wise Health in Texas reported a data breach incident to HHS as impacting 35,899 patients.

Attackers launched a phishing attack against their system after that several employees fell for the phish and provided their login credentials.

Once these usernames and passwords were obtained, the intruders used the information to access the Employee Kiosk in an attempt to divert payroll direct deposits.

Email boxes may have compromised the patient information such as medical record number, diagnostic and treatment information, and potentially insurance information.
