VICTORIA, Texas, May 17, 2024
/PRNewswire/ -- Victoria Eye Center/Victoria Surgery
Center/Victoria Vision Center ("VEC") is writing to provide
information regarding an event that involves certain information
relating to personal health information. On March 21, 2024, VEC became aware that certain
computer systems in our environment were inaccessible as a result
of malicious file encryption. VEC immediately launched an
extensive investigation, aided by third party computer forensic
specialists, to determine the nature and scope of the event and
worked quickly to secure VEC systems, restore access to the
information and investigate what happened and whether this resulted
in any unauthorized access to information by any unknown
actor. Through VEC's investigation, VEC determined that an
unknown actor gained access to a limited number of our systems and
certain files in those systems were accessed.
In an abundance of caution, VEC performed a comprehensive review
of the contents of the affected systems to determine what
information could be contained in the impacted files and to whom
the information related. The review was recently
completed. VEC has not received reports of any fraudulent
misuse of any information potentially impacted by the
event.
