Wyoming Department of Health leaves Health Insurance Information Exposed Online

The Wyoming Department of Health is doing damage control after learning that the personal information of about 9,000 children is at risk for misuse after the information turned up online unsecure and accessible.

Their system shows the information was accessed 94 times, but they are unsure what was business access and what was public access. Officials are still investigating, but in the meantime, credit monitoring services by Debix are being offered to families whose children’s data may be at risk for identity theft.
