Thousands of NHS workers have had their data leaked due to what the NHS has described as a human error.
It is unclear whether hackers have stolen the information and whether they may use it in future hacking campaigns.
The National Health Service, the U.K.'s national healthcare provider, has sent an email notifying all the affected victims.
- The leaked information was sent to several NHS managers and over 20 people outside the organization.
- It is estimated that around 14,000 NHS employees were affected by this breach.
- NHS officials stated that law authorities and private investigators are both working on the case to track the exact circumstances that led to this data leak.
