Oregon Health Data Breach

Oregon Health Plan members among 1.7M impacted by data breach.

The Oregon Health Authority announced that 1.7 million Oregon Health Plan members were impacted by a data breach and is urging enrollees to take steps to protect their personal information.

The DHS is encouraging all Oregon Health Plan members to take steps to protect their personal information, such as reviewing and monitoring their credit reports, changing passwords and PINs, and being vigilant about monitoring for any suspicious activity.

For those Oregon Health Plan members who are worried about the potential of identity theft, the DHS recommends taking additional steps to safeguard their information, such as freezing their credit reports or signing up for an identity theft protection service.

While the DHS is taking steps to help protect Oregon Health Plan members from the potential fallout of this data breach, the breach serves as a reminder to all of us that data security is an issue that cannot be taken lightly. It’s important for all of us to be proactive about protecting our personal information, both online and off.
