The following was found in the legal notices section of the Westerly Sun. Details for�NOTICE OF DATA breach HBP notice OF data BREACH�HBP Financial Services Group, LTD (HBP), which serves as the praxis administrator for Pathology Consultants of New London, PC (PCNL), was the victim of an IT incident that resulted in the unauthorized access to two HBP email accounts. HBP notified PNCL on July 21, 2021. While the incident was limited to two email accounts, we discovered that personal information may have been accessible. This observation is intended to provide notice to individuals for whom PCNL did not have an adequate address. On may 20, 2021, HBP discovered that the hacker used both email accounts to effort to commit financial humbug against HBP. HBP immediately engaged an IT forensics firm to determine the seed of the problem, measure their systems and aid secure the environment. Within 24 hours, the IT professionals secured the email system, and put additional protection measures in place. An investigation confirmed that only ii email accounts were involved and that no other HBP systems were compromised. a phishing snipe most likely caused the email compromise. The investigation revealed that the first sign of unauthorized access occurred between April 30, 2021 and may 20, 2021. The investigation also revealed that the hackers sole focalise was to charge financial fraud against HBP. The hacker did not appear to be interested in personal information and did not take any traceable litigate that shows that the hacker forwarded or acquired any personal information in the email accounts. HBP reported the incident to the FBI. Although there is no evidence that data was taken, HBP performed an in-depth review of the ii email accounts to determine whether there was any personal info that the hacker could have accessed. In doing so, HBP located emails and attachments that contained personal information. The personal information about those for whom PCNL did not get an adequate address that was available for the hacker to access was name, address, date of birth, account number, insurance information, and limited clinical information. We confirmed that as soon as HBP learned of the incident, it immediately implemented measures to stop the unauthorized access and to ensure such access does not occur again. We uphold to work with HBP to ensure the security of information. Since all evidence indicates that the hacker was not interested in personal info and because social Security number information was not involved for the intended recipients of this Notice, we doh not believe that any further steps are necessary for protection other than regularly reviewing explanation of benefits statement received for accuracy. HBP has band up an Assistance line to reply questions about this incident. To reach the HBP assistance Line, telephone (888) 994-0267 and employ the source number B017858.
