According to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Office for Civil Rights filing, Somnia reported a data breach after they were targeted in a recent cyber security attack that compromised their email system.
The incident first came to light on November 21, 2024, when Somnia Anesthesia detected unusual activity within its email infrastructure. Upon discovery, the healthcare management company implemented security measures to secure all email accounts potentially affected by the breach. Simultaneously, Somnia engaged a specialized team of cybersecurity experts to conduct a thorough investigation into the scope and nature of the unauthorized access.
