Murphy Law Firm is investigating claims on behalf of all individuals whose personal and confidential information was compromised in the data breach involving Hypertension-Nephrology Associates, P.C. (“Hypertension-Nephrology Associates”). On February 6, 2024, Hypertension-Nephrology Associates detected suspicious activity on its computer network, indicating a data breach. Based on a subsequent forensic investigation, Hypertension-Nephrology Associates determined that cybercriminals infiltrated its inadequately secured computer systems and thereby gained access to its data files during the period January 20, 2024, through February 6, 2024.
