The exposed database, which was not password-protected or encrypted, contained 86,341 records and was 108.8 GB in size. Most documents were in a folder labeled “App,” including user profile images, monthly work schedules, professional certificates, work agreements, CVs, and other personal identifiable information (PII). One spreadsheet alone had over 800,000 entries detailing nurses’ IDs, facility names, shift times, and hours worked.
After notifying the issue, the authority tanked the researcher saying “Thank you! we’re actively looking into this and working on a solution” and restricted the dataset from public access.
ESHYFT is a mobile app that links healthcare facilities with qualified nurses. It’s available on both the Apple App Store and Google Play Store, with over 50,000 downloads on Google Play.
Jeremiah Fowler suggested Health tech companies and medical software providers should prioritize cybersecurity to safeguard data and prevent unauthorized access. They should implement mandatory encryption for sensitive information and conduct regular security audits to find vulnerabilities. It’s advisable to limit the storage of sensitive data, anonymize records when possible, and set expiration dates for unused information.
