Johnson & Johnson Health Care Systems has informed its CarePath customers that their sensitive information has been compromised in a third-party data breach involving IBM. IBM is a technology service provider for Janssen; specifically, it manages the CarePath application and database supporting its functions.
IBM has published a separate announcement about the incident that says there are no indications the stolen data has been misused.
A couple of weeks back, the Colorado Department of Health Care Policy & Financing informed four million individuals that their personal and medical data had been exposed due to the breach on IBM. BleepingComputer has asked IBM about whether this incident is related to the MOVEit attack, and a spokesperson told us that it is a separate incident caused by different threat actors.
