The incident was identified on Christmas day last year and resulted in the hospital diverting patients from its emergency rooms after its health record system was shut down.
Anna Jaques initially disclosed the data breach on January 23, after a threat actor known as Money Message listed the hospital on its leaks site, claiming the theft of 600 gigabytes of data. The threat actor made the allegedly stolen data available for download days later.
