This cybersecurity breach occurred on September 7 and pertains to a company that provides services to the health authority. The affected individuals either had a P.E.I. health card prior to 2011 or were non-residents who received medical care on the Island between 2008 and 2011. Health PEI's interim CEO, Laurae Kloschinsky, stated that the risk of misuse for the exposed data is considered low. The provincial privacy commissioner has been enlisted to examine the incident.",
