About this report
On February 27, 2012, a computer server was stolen from the covered entity (CE), Shields for Families. The server contained the electronic protected health information (ePHI) of 961 individuals and included names, addresses, zip codes, birth dates and referral information. The CE provided breach notification to HHS, affected individuals, and the media. The CE improved physical safeguards by relocating the new server to a locked office and securing it within the room. The CE initiated major improvements to its IT infrastructure, revised its security program, and retrained workforce members on its revised policies and procedures. OCR obtained assurances that the CE implemented the corrective actions noted above.
