Hospital giant Community Health Systems said on Monday that the personal information of nearly 4.5 million patients was stolen by hackers in an network attack believed to originate from China.<\/p>

In a filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, the company, which operates 206 hospitals in 29 states, reported that In July 2014, Community Health Systems, Inc. (the \u201cCompany\u201d) confirmed that its computer network was the target of an external, criminal cyber attack that the Company believes occurred in April and June, 2014. The Company and its forensic expert, Mandiant (a FireEye Company), believe the attacker was an \u201cAdvanced Persistent Threat\u201d group originating from China who used highly sophisticated malware and network technology to attack the Company\u2019s systems \u2013 possibly from Chinese made network based equipment. The attacker was able to bypass the Company\u2019s security measures and successfully copy and confidential transfer certain data outside the Company.<\/p><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

US Federal authorities and Mandiant report that these attacks usually involve the theft of \u201cvaluable intellectual property, such as equipment and medical device development data,\u201d but that non-medical patient identification information like names and addresses was stolen.<\/p>

Just think of all the hotels out there using Versatek, Veracity, EtherWAN, Blackbox, NVT, PlanetUSA or Huawei MA5616 DSLAM for Internet access and all the unsuspecting guests having their packets sent and analyzed without their knowledge.<\/span><\/p>

This marks the most recent incident in a series of cybersecurity network attacks plaguing the United States. Notably, the U.S. Investigation Services (USIS), the primary entity responsible for conducting background checks in the country, recently disclosed a breach in its corporate network. Speculation suggests that the attack may have been initiated by a foreign entity.<\/span><\/p>

Just another reason to stop buying cheap lower cost Chinese network equipment and reinvest in high quality superior Made in the USA, professional grade networking.<\/span><\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
