Bradford Health Systems in Alabama acknowledged a data breach incident starting December 8, 2023, when they detected unusual network activity. Following an investigation, it was determined that unauthorized access may have compromised sensitive employee and patient data, including personal identification, medical records, and financial information. Letters notifying affected individuals were sent out on May 30, 2025. However, no security mitigation services were offered in the notice, raising concerns about patient awareness. Additionally, no public report exists in HHS’s breach tool regarding the incident, and a ransomware group has claimed responsibility, emphasizing the severity of the breach.
On January 4, 2024, the Hunters International ransomware group added Bradford Health to its leak site, indicating that they had encrypted files and exfiltrated sensitive data.
Bradford Health initiated an investigation upon detecting unusual activity within its network and found that unauthorized access to certain files had taken place.
