Ontario Health Data Breach Delay
from Ottawa News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
A major ransomware attack on Ontario Medical Supply hit in April, but the company didn’t confirm patient data was compromised until May—leaving the public in the dark for weeks. What’s worse, internal records show the Ministry of Health knew about the breach’s impact as early as May 23rd, just days after the company’s official disclosure. Critics, including MPP Adil Shamji, are demanding accountability, accusing the government of withholding critical information that could have affected hundreds of thousands of patients. The Ministry insists it acted promptly once notified, but the delay has sparked outrage over transparency and cybersecurity failures in healthcare systems.
