Healthcare Retroactive Audits

22 171 128 medical record files, neatly packaged into 11 archives by hospital. The firm Healthcare Retroactive Audits, which was auditing the data for insurers, not only let the leak happen but also took no steps to stop the files from being published. When we approached NIH Information Security Program to discuss the issue, they said they weren’t interested in resolving it. We’re now open to talks with the affected organizations, insurers and the hospitals whose data were lost. These files are only a portion of the total breach, and we’re deciding whether to keep the release at this size or expand it.
