Clover Health Investments Discloses Data Breach Affecting Customer Information
Clover Health Investments, a healthcare technology company, has reported a data breach that compromised personal and health information of its customers. The breach, discovered on July 4, was a result of a social engineering attack targeting three non-managerial employee accounts involved in member visit-scheduling and broker-facing sales functions. These accounts had access to personally identifiable information and protected health information but did not have access to corporate financial or claims systems. Clover Health activated its response plan immediately, engaging third-party cybersecurity experts to contain and investigate the breach. The company has not yet determined the full scope of the breach and no group has claimed responsibility for the attack.
