BACKGROUND:
Quest Diagnostics has informed the SEC about a ransomware attack in August that hit ReproSource, a fertility clinic owned by the company. The ransomware attack led to a data breach, exposing a significant amount of health and financial information for about 350,000 ReproSource patients. Quest said ReproSource provided notice that it experienced a data security incident in which an unauthorized party may have accessed or acquired the protected health information and personally identifiable information of some patients.
