Data Breach at Utrecht Dental Practice Proclin
The specialized dental practice Proclin in Utrecht experienced a data breach affecting patient addresses, citizen service numbers, and medical records. A local server hosting patient files was attacked externally and encrypted by TopMondzorg, the organization overseeing the practice. It remains unclear whether the data was accessed or copied, as forensic investigations are ongoing to determine how the breach occurred. The incident has been reported to the Dutch Data Protection Authority (Autoriteit Persoonsgegevens), though the exact number of affected patients is currently unknown.
