Star Hospitals Data Leak Prompted Cyber Case in Hyderabad
Star Hospitals in Hyderabad says that some of its patients’ private information was posted on the internet.
The hospital’s boss, Rahul Medakkar, told the police that the data was on a website called "warehouse.diy" and that people shared the login details on WhatsApp.
