A Texas healthcare system was the target of a recent security breach in which hackers accessed protected health information of around 405,000 individuals.

The hackers reportedly operated from IP addresses in China. They gained access to a server containing patient and employee Social Security numbers, dates of birth and medical records. The security attack occurred in December 2013, and hospital officials released information about the breach in early February.

This is reported as one of the largest hacking events in the health care industry.
