ICYMI (I did), Change Healthcare says 100 million people impacted by February ransomware attack.

Remember the time Change paid a $22m ransom? And the affiliate responsible said they were never paid their cut and started selling the data anyway? And an entire ransomware group dissolved as a result? Yeah, that ransomware attack.

"Change Healthcare updated filings with the federal government to warn that about 100 million people had information accessed by hackers during a ransomware attack in February.

The Department of Health and Human Services’s (HHS) Office for Civil Rights said Change Healthcare notified them on October 22 that “approximately 100 million individual notices have been sent regarding this breach.”

In June, the company admitted that the hackers behind the incident likely accessed health insurance information, extensive personal health information like test results and images, financial and banking information as well as personal data like Social Security numbers."
