Importantly, the information involved in this incident does not include social security numbers or full credit card information.When we detected that an unauthorized third party accessed the Verity Medical Foundation-San Jose Medical Group website that is no longer in use, we promptly initiated an internal investigation. Our investigation determined that the unauthorized third party accessed the website between October 2015 and January 2017. We took immediate steps to secure the website, stop any further unauthorized activity, and prevent similar incidents from happening in the future. We are working with a leading cyber-security firm to assist with the investigation and to further evaluate the integrity of our information systems to ensure protection of our patients’ personal data. We promptly reported the incident to the Department of Health and Human Services, Office of Civil Rights, as required, and to federal law enforcement authorities."More information: https://oag.ca.gov/ecrime/databreach/list
