$3 Million OCR Touchstone Settlement Warns Health Plans of Perils of HIPAA Violations
Solutions Law Press 
May 7, 2019
"Around May 9, 2014, the [FBI] and OCR notified Touchstone that one of its FTP servers allowed uncontrolled access to PHI that allowed search engines to index the PHI of more than 300,000 of Touchstone's patients, which remained visible on the Internet even after the server was taken offline.... Touchstone did not provide notice of the breach until October, 2014, months after OCR and FBI notified it of the breach.... Covered Entities should learn from the painful lesson learned by Touchstone by reconfirming the adequacy of their current HIPAA compliance and using care to timely and adequately investigate and provide notification if and when a breach occurs."
