New York Blood Center Enterprises Data Breach?:
Lawsuit Investigation
Attorneys working with ClassAction.org are looking into whether a class action lawsuit can be filed in light of the New York Blood Center Enterprises ransomware attack.
As part of their investigation, they need to hear from patients and donors who may have been affected.
On January 26, 2025, suspicious activity was detected involving the IT systems of New York Blood Center Enterprises and its operating divisions. Cybersecurity experts were engaged to investigate, confirming that the activity was the result of a ransomware attack.
Not much is known about the potential New York Blood Center Enterprises data breach, but the organization claims to serve 75 million people through its blood donor centers and operating divisions in New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, Missouri, Kansas, Minnesota, Nebraska, Rhode Island and Southern New England.
New York Blood Center Enterprises also offers laboratory testing services and provides transfusion-related medical services to over 400 hospitals. New York Blood Center Enterprises' divisions include New York Blood Center, Blood Bank of Delmarva, Community Blood Center, Innovative Blood Resources, Memorial Blood Centers, Nebraska Community Blood Bank, Rhode Island Blood Center and Connecticut Blood Center, Comprehensive Cell Solutions, Lindsley F. Kimball Research Institute, and National Center for Blood Group Genomics.
If you donated blood or received services from New York Blood Center Enterprises, attorneys want to hear from you. In the event your information was exposed in a data breach, you may be able to start a class action lawsuit to recover compensation for loss of privacy, time spent dealing with the breach, out-of-pocket costs, and more.
A successful case could also force New York Blood Center Enterprises to ensure it takes proper steps to protect the information it was entrusted with.
