Healthcare facilities operator Nutex says patient, employee data stolen in August incident

Nutex Health, a Houston-based healthcare facilities operator, disclosed a breach affecting patient and employee data in an August incident. Cybercriminals accessed the data and attempted extortion, prompting notification to federal regulators.

Why it matters: Healthcare providers and their patients should monitor for identity theft and fraud; Nutex customers need to verify notification receipt and consider credit monitoring given the sensitive data exposed.
