Dr. Mary Ruth Buchness Data Breach (2015)

When Missy Brown opened her email Monday morning, she was stunned to find a document from her doctor's office containing personal information for 15,000 names. "I think the subject line said 'coupon attached,' and I saw that there was a spreadsheet attachment," she said. "As soon as I opened it, I saw that it was a spreadsheet that had personal information in it." The document was a detailed list of nearly 15,000 names and corresponding addresses, appointment dates and Social Security numbers, all from the office of Dr. Mary Ruth Buchness, a dermatologist in Soho. It's not clear how and why the file was sent out.
