The Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center and El Paso recently fell victim to a cyberattack, resulting in the exposure of data from 1.4 million individuals. The attack, caused by ransomware, led to the removal of sensitive information including names, addresses, Social Security numbers, and medical records. The group responsible, known as Interlock, demands large ransoms and has posted the stolen data online. In response, the institution is strengthening security measures and offering affected individuals free credit monitoring services. This incident highlights the increasing threat of cyberattacks on healthcare organizations.
