Personal information belonging to patients and staff across 21 health clinics nationwide has been compromised following a cyberattack on Australian healthcare provider Partnered Health.

The breach, which affected clinics spread across the country, resulted in the theft of personal data held by the organisation. Partnered Health operates the network of affected clinics, making the incident one of the latest in a series of cyberattacks to strike the Australian healthcare sector.

Authorities and the affected provider are understood to be investigating the full scope of the breach. Those potentially affected are urged to remain vigilant and monitor for any suspicious activity involving their personal details.
