400,000 Patients Exposed in Hack at American Addiction Centers

NOT SO ANONYMOUS –

Dec. 25, 2024 – The breached data may include names, addresses, phone numbers, dates of birth, medical record numbers, and other identifiers, according to American Addiction Centers. Social security numbers and health insurance information may also have been exposed, but not patients’ treatment information or payment card data. The Brentwood, Tennessee-based company discovered a cybersecurity incident “on or around” September 26 of this year and said it launched an investigation immediately. It notified law enforcement and engaged third-party cybersecurity experts for assistance.

The investigation determined that an “unauthorized party” had taken some data from AAC’s systems between September 23rd and September 26th.
