Texas Centers for Infectious Disease Associates (TCIDA) reported a data breach initially detected on July 19, 2024. An unauthorized individual might have accessed patient information via a former third-party billing vendor's compromised systems. The notice did not disclose the vendor's name or how the breach happened and revealed no specifics about the number of patients affected. BianLian hackers later publicized this breach on August 14, alleging access to 300 GB of sensitive data, but TCIDA did not confirm the claims made regarding the incident.
BianLian threat actors first publicly disclosed the incident on August 14, revealing TCIDA on their darkweb leak site, claiming they had accessed 300 GB of sensitive data.
The notice sent by TCIDA did not specify how many patients were affected, nor did it clarify the status of the billing vendor during the incident.
