Fullerton Health breach exposed 140,000 migrant worker records
What's new: About 43,000 exposed records were tied to expired work passes, and the company is rebuilding the portal on a new server.
Fullerton Health said a cyberattack on its migrant worker Primary Care Plan portal exposed about 140,000 work pass holder records in Singapore. The compromised data may have included full names, foreign identification numbers, dates of birth, mobile numbers, email addresses and residential addresses. About 43,000 of the records belonged to people whose work passes were no longer valid. Fullerton Health said no health, medical or personal financial information was affected. The company said it isolated the standalone server after detecting the breach on Oct. 31 and is building a replacement server for a new enrolment portal. The Ministry of Manpower has also alerted affected workers through its FWMOMCare app in their native languages.
