2020 Blackbaud’s Breach: 5.6 Million Patients and Still Counting…. Dissent Doe DataBreaches.net Interim Report #2: 9/24/2020 • Blackbaud, a software firm that provides cloud-based donor management solutions for fund-raising purposes, experienced a ransomware attack that they discovered on May 7, 2020. On July 16, they notified clients of the attack and issued a statement. Many clients are now having to notify patients whose protected health information (PHI) had been provided to Blackbaud as part of fundraising efforts. • DataBreaches.net uses multiple sources and searches to find Blackbaud-related reports: Google searches, DuckDuckGo, searches of state attorney general websites that post notifications, and HHS’s public breach portal. Note that not all entities in DataBreaches.net’s report are HIPAA-covered entities. • On September 13, DataBreaches.net issued its first interim report. As of September 24, and based on currently available notifications, DataBreaches.net has now tallied 79 Blackbaud-related incident reports involving patient information. We have numbers for 47 of the 79 reports and know that many more reports have yet to be released. Findings: • Augusta University (Georgia Health Sciences Foundation) had the fewest number of patients with PHI: 6. • Inova Health reported the largest number: 1,045,270. • For the 47 entities who provided numbers, we have a total of 5,565,831 patients whose demographic information and status as patients was revealed, sometimes with additional details about their patient experiences. • The 47 incidents had a mean of 118,421.94 patients and a median of 60,595 patients. Are you unnecessarily giving fundraising arms or business associates protected health information? Some simple alterations in the data you provide may change it from PHI to non-PHI. You can see the updated interim list of compiled reports on the following pages. Any corrections to the list can be sent to breaches[at]databreaches.net.
