Anthem, America's second biggest health insurer, HACKED: Millions hit by breach

Mark 85

Re: I love El Reg!

It doesn't require a government attack. My former employer's (health insurance company) IT bods are scrambling as they have basically the same equipment/software and outsourced "services".

See my post above about "Data breach waiting to happen". The BC/BS's use a lot of the same outsourced company for software and a "cloud" of sorts were some data is local, but much with the outsourced company. Presumably, there will be more information forthcoming on this.

Hell, the Blues even outsource processing of claims where they can. There's possible breaches all over the place in that industry.

Not a great troll... but you tried.
