Data breach: ‘Malicious actor’ downloaded private information about Health NZ staff

The breach occurred in October 2024, affecting staff in the lower North Island. Although no evidence suggests the stolen data has been posted or shared online, Health NZ is reportedly investigating the sophisticated cyber attack. Fiona McCarthy, interim chief human resources officer, stated the incident did not affect patient data.
