Fullerton Health breach exposed 140,000 migrant worker records

Fullerton Health said about 140,000 work pass holder records were compromised in a cyber incident tied to its Migrant Worker Primary Care Plan enrolment portal in Singapore. The healthcare provider said the affected 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 About 43,000 of the records belonged to people whose work passes were no longer valid.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 it isolated the affected standalone server, is building a replacement server for the portal and found no signs of breaches in other monitored IT assets. The Ministry of Manpower and Fullerton Health said the incident did not disrupt workers’ access to care.
