A US-based health care company says it has been hacked, exposing 211,000 of its clients personal information.
On July 3, 2025, UI Community HomeCare told clients that someone gained unauthorized access to the computer system of the University of Iowa Community HomeCare, an affiliate of the company.

“UI Community HomeCare quickly took action to protect their patients and prevent further harm by shutting down their servers and bringing in cybersecurity experts to investigate. They were able to safely restore systems within one business day.
After further investigation, we learned that a cybercriminal was able to see and take copies of data in UI Community HomeCare’s computer system, which included some shared data files containing information from a group of UI Health Care patients.”
