NY AG James and CT AG Tong Secure $2.7 Million from Boston Children’s Health Physicians and XTIUM for 2024 Data Breach

New York and Connecticut attorneys general secured a $2.7 million settlement from Boston Children's Health Physicians and XTIUM following a 2024 data breach affecting the provider. The agreement includes a corrective action plan to strengthen data security practices at the organization.

Why it matters: Healthcare organizations and their IT vendors should review this settlement as a high-profile example of joint liability exposure; state AGs are holding both providers and service providers accountable for breach response and security controls.
