Veradigm warns of patient data breach after ransomware gang claims attack
Healthcare vendor Veradigm disclosed a patient data breach via a third-party vendor's credentials, which the Gentlemen ransomware gang claims involved 3.5 million records.
Veradigm, formerly Allscripts, told the SEC that an attacker used compromised credentials from a third-party vendor to access a customer-service API and copy patient data, including personal details and Social Security numbers, without touching clinical data or the broader network. The Gentlemen ransomware group listed Veradigm on its leak site claiming 3.5 million patient records and threatened to publish the data by September 11 unless ransom negotiations start. The gang, active since mid-2025, runs double extortion across Windows, Linux, NAS, BSD and ESXi, lists 800+ victims in 86 countries, and has been linked to a SystemBC proxy botnet and the GentleKiller EDR killer. Veradigm is notifying affected individuals, offering credit monitoring, and says it does not expect a material business impact.
