Oracle under fire for its handling of separate security incidents | TechCrunch
Briefly

Oracle is facing backlash over its management of separate data breaches, specifically involving its healthcare subsidiary, Oracle Health. Reports indicate that hackers accessed critical patient data but the exact nature of the stolen information and the organizations impacted remain unclear. Oracle notified some healthcare clients of a breach involving legacy servers that were compromised prior to being migrated to the Oracle Cloud. Additionally, an extortion attempt against affected hospitals is reportedly underway, with the attackers demanding significant ransoms.
"We are writing to inform you that, on or around February 20, 2025, we became aware of a cybersecurity event involving unauthorized access to some amount of your Cerner data that was on an old legacy server not yet migrated to the Oracle Cloud."
"Bloomberg and Bleeping Computer reported last week that the breach affects patient data, although it's unclear exactly what kinds of data were stolen, nor which organizations and companies that use Oracle Health are affected."
