A major health-tech firm has exposed the personal and medical data of nearly 20 million people after a hacker broke into outdated hospital servers. Oracle Health, which runs systems formerly operated by Cerner, confirmed that an unauthorized person reached two legacy Cerner servers that had not yet moved to Oracle Cloud, reports HIPAA Journal. Cerner is a major health information technology company and electronic health record (EHR) platform used by more than 27,000 healthcare facilities across over 35 countries. Oracle acquired Cerner in 2022 in a $28.4 billion mega deal and merged the firm into Oracle Health.
