LACMA data breach last year exposed social security and medical data

The Los Angeles County Museum of Art reported a breach from the previous year that compromised personal information of both customers and employees. The exposed data included Social Security numbers and medical records. LACMA said it is notifying affected individuals and offering credit monitoring services.

Why it matters: Customers and employees of LACMA are affected; their Social Security numbers and medical data were exposed, so practitioners should review breach notification procedures and consider offering identity‑protection monitoring.
