The state of Nebraska has sued the healthtech giant "Change Healthcare" over a series of alleged security failings that resulted in a historical data breach
exposing the sensitive health information of at least 100 million Americans.In a complaint filed this week, Nebraska’s attorney general Mike Hilgers claims #UnitedHealth-owned Change Healthcare failed to implement proper security measures,
leading to what he describes as a “historic” data breach in terms of impact and magnitude.This comes after it was revealed in October that more than 100 million Americans had their sensitive medical data stolen during a February ransomware attack on Change Healthcare.
This data included personal information such as addresses and phone numbers, health data including diagnoses, medications, treatment plans, and financial and banking data.
Change Healthcare continues to notify affected individuals about the data breach,
and the final number is expected to be higher than 100 million.Hilgers said in his complaint that Change Healthcare’s
“failures to implement basic security protections”
exacerbated the extent of the cyberattack,
which was attributed to the Russian-speaking #ALPHV #ransomware gang.The complaint alleges that the healthtech giant had poorly segmented IT systems
that allowed the hackers to travel freely between servers,
and that Change Healthcare had failed to implement multi-factor authentication on its systems,
which meant they could be accessed with just a username and password.

Change Healthcare submitted a breach notification to #HHS on July 19. They report the number of patients affected as "500" (a marker for "We have no friggin' idea how many and we'll get back to you at some date before the end of civilization maybe.").
They didn't comply with the "no later than 60 calendar days" requirement and I'm not sure what good a "500" report does anyone.

#UnitedHealth says #ChangeHealthcare hackers stole health data on ‘substantial proportion of people in America’
The health tech giant handles health data for about half of all #Americans
The admission that hackers stole Americans’ health data comes a week after a new hacking group began publishing portions of the stolen data in an effort to extort a second #ransom demand from the company. After paying $22 million to a Russia-based criminal gang called #ALPHV in March.
