Ransomware gang threatens to expose one million sensitive medical records online

Ransomware operators Daixin Team are claiming to have stolen “more than a million records” from a U.S. healthcare organization, and are threatening to leak it all to the public. 

It’s unclear whether this means a million affected patients, or a million pieces of sensitive information belonging to fewer patients, but whatever the case, the threat actors stole sensitive data from OakBend Medical Center, which operates three hospitals in the state of Texas, and shut down its communications and IT systems in the process.
