Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center (TTUHSC) has filed a data breach notification with the New Hampshire Attorney General's office on April 24, 2026. This report officially acknowledges an incident where personal information under TTUHSC's care may have been compromised. Our investigation into the details of this breach is now underway, examining the reported facts to determine the potential impact on those affected.
At this time, the precise nature of the breach and the specific categories of personal information involved have not been disclosed in the public record. Without these details, it remains unclear how the incident occurred or what particular types of your data may have been accessed or acquired by unauthorized parties.
For individuals who receive a notification letter from TTUHSC regarding this incident, it is crucial to review that communication carefully for any specific advice or information it provides. Be extra vigilant for any unsolicited communications that claim to be from TTUHSC or other entities asking for personal details, as these could be phishing attempts related to the breach.
Our focus is on examining TTUHSC's actions leading up to the breach, the duration unauthorized parties may have had access to systems, and the timeliness of the notification provided to affected individuals. Companies have a legal obligation to protect the data they hold and to promptly inform individuals if that data is compromised.
