Eastern Health has completed a review of a network drive that was compromised in the cyber attack that paralyzed the healthcare system for a time back in the fall of 2021.

That review is now complete and Eastern Health says about 20,000 files on the drive contained such information, affecting approximately 31,500 people. They say the majority of those affected are patients, while 280 are either current or former staff. It has since been determined that the social insurance numbers for fewer than 20 people and the banking info for fewer than five patients was compromised. There’s nothing to indicate that information has been misused at this time.
