Poland probes MyDr healthcare software breach potentially affecting 19 million people

Poland investigates a breach at healthcare software firm MyDr potentially exposing data of nearly 19 million people and over 12,000 medical facilities.

Polish healthcare software provider MyDr disclosed a cyberattack that may have exposed personal and medical data belonging to nearly 19 million people and more than 12,000 medical facilities. Hackers obtained unauthorized access to historical data held through April 2024, but the company has found no evidence the data has been published. As a precaution, Poland's e-Health Center is replacing digital certificates used by medical systems to connect to the national P1 e-health platform. The Personal Data Protection Office plans to inspect MyDr and security agencies are working to identify those responsible; no threat actor has been attributed.

Three intrusions at UK criminal records office went undetected for two years

UK ICO reprimands ACRO criminal records office after three undetected intrusions over two years exposed thousands of records, including domestic violence victims.

The UK Information Commissioner's Office reprimanded ACRO Criminal Records Office after three intrusions between July 2021 and June 2023 exploited a Kentico customer portal unpatched since September 2019 and ignored Trend Micro antivirus alerts, including four quarantined Mimikatz detections. An attacker maintained persistent access for roughly seven months and staged data of nearly 11,000 people for exfiltration, though ACRO could not confirm exfiltration due to insufficient logging. ACRO notified more than 84,000 people on a precautionary basis; the Medusa ransomware group claimed the incident, and network segmentation kept attackers out of the Police National Computer.
