More than 120,000 Health Alliance Plan (HAP) clients’ personal and protected medical information may have been compromised in a security breach, the Detroit Free Press reported on Tuesday. Letters notifying customers of the breach were sent last week by Wolverine Solutions Group, a Detroit-based company HAP hired to manage its mailing services. The letters said the security problem occurred on or around Sept. 23, when Wolverine Solutions Group “experienced a ransomware incident—a malicious software that attacked and locked up our servers and workstations.”
