A cyberattack on UnitedHealth's technology unit, Change, has compromised the personal data of 100 million individuals, marking it as the most significant healthcare data breach in the U.S. The attack, attributed to the hacking group ALPHV (BlackCat), led to extensive disruptions in claims processing and has resulted in UnitedHealth notifying affected patients since June. The breach includes potentially stolen health insurance member IDs, diagnoses, treatment details, and social security numbers, with the company estimating a $705 million impact on its business due to the incident.
