Washington State Healthcare Provider Issues Security Advisory on Stolen Laptop

Brad Wong writes in The Seattle Post-Intelligencer:

Everett-based Compass Health has issued a security advisory to clients that one of its laptop computers was stolen in late June - but there is no indication that the personal data and social security numbers contained in the computer were used for identity theft.

The advisory affects a limited number of people, including those served by Catholic Community Services and SeaMar. Both groups have Seattle offices.

People affected by this theft should have received letters from Compass Health, an agency that helps people who suffer from mental illness.
