A Tennessee-based cardiac care clinic is notifying more than 170,000 patients and others that hackers may have stolen their sensitive personal and medical information in a cyberattack detected in April. The Karakurt cybercrime group claimed credit for the hack a month later.
In a report filed to Maine’s attorney general on Friday, The Chattanooga Heart Institute said that on April 17 it saw indications of a cyberattack on its IT network. The incident affected a total of 170,450 individuals, including five Maine residents, the clinic said.
