Singapore care agency breach may have exposed data of 4,064 workers
What's new: The agency took its advance care planning system offline after detecting the intrusion on Nov. 10 and later restored it.
A cybersecurity incident at Singapore's Agency for Integrated Care may have exposed the personal data of up to 4,064 employees at public healthcare institutions and community care providers. The breach involved the Advance Care Planning IT System, which AIC detected on Nov. 10. Data that may have been accessed included names, phone numbers, email addresses and NRIC numbers. AIC said there were no signs that medical records or patient data were compromised and that no other systems were affected. The agency filed a police report, notified the Cyber Security Agency of Singapore and took the system offline as a precaution before restoring it on Thursday.
