Monash IVF Group warned patients that it could not rule out the possibility their personal information has been breached following a widespread cyberattack on staff emails. During the deliberate phishing assault, it was discovered that scammers gained access to the emails, email addresses, and address books of several staff members. The organisation announced the initiation of an inquiry by a team of forensic IT professionals to find out how the server was compromised and whether patient personal information was accessed. In spite of the fact that the inquiry revealed that private patient databases were unharmed, the national reproductive firm warned patients via email on Tuesday afternoon that staff emails containing private patient data, including medical histories, may have been compromised.
