  1. Because they probably can’t sue the hackers, and the hospital has a duty to protect the information from hackers…the suit will determine if CHI took the industry standard protections and safeguards to keep this from happening…

    if not, they will pay damages. As a patient of CHI, I hope my information was not taken. But I’m more than a bit annoyed the security seems to have broken down. Hackers are not a secret. There are lots of experts to help protect systems. The hackers always seem to be a step or two ahead, but they can be tracked. They can be stopped.

  2. How was the plaintiff harmed, what was the personal damage? I agree it shouldn’t have happened, but this just sounds like a greedy person with a greedy lawyer.
