Breach Announcement
Woodcreek’s information technology vendor, Netgain Technology LLC, experienced a data breach secondary to a ransomware attack. According to Netgain Technology’s investigation, the breach occurred sometime between November 24 and December 3, 2020, although it is possible that access to Netgain’s systems was as early as September 2020.
The server containing Woodcreek’s medical records system was untouched; however, scanned clinical and financial data and other business records on an archive server was stolen by the attackers. The data was returned after the ransom was paid and we have no reason to believe it has been or will be further used or disclosed. On January 18, 2021, Woodcreek received a copy of the recovered data set and has been working diligently since then to notify affected individuals.
