Counseling and health services firm Equinox on Friday disclosed a data breach involving the personal health information of some current and former clients, as well as staff and has notified the individuals likely to have been affected.

The company had on April 29 discovered an unusual activity in its system and after an independent forensic investigation, it learned that an “unauthorized actor accessed and potentially acquired certain files stored within its internal systems”.

The information that could have been compromised varies between individuals, but may include names, social security numbers, financial account information and medication-related information, among others.

“Equinox has implemented additional security features to help prevent similar incidents from occurring in the future,” the company said. (Reporting by Tanay Dhumal in Bengaluru; Editing by Mohammed Safi Shamsi)

What is Firewall? A Firewall is a network security device that monitors and filters incoming and outgoing network traffic based on an organization's previously established security policies. At its most basic, a firewall is essentially the barrier that sits between a private internal network and the public Internet.

 

Secure your network at the gateway against threats such as intrusions, Viruses, Spyware, Worms, Trojans, Adware, Keyloggers, Malicious Mobile Code (MMC), and other dangerous applications for total protection in a convenient, affordable subscription-based service. Modern threats like web-based malware attacks, targeted attacks, application-layer attacks, and more have had a significantly negative effect on the threat landscape. In fact, more than 80% of all new malware and intrusion attempts are exploiting weaknesses in applications, as opposed to weaknesses in networking components and services. Stateful firewalls with simple packet filtering capabilities were efficient blocking unwanted applications as most applications met the port-protocol expectations. Administrators could promptly prevent an unsafe application from being accessed by users by blocking the associated ports and protocols.
