Notification letters are being sent to patients who had genetic testing done through Baylor Genetics, a Houston-based clinical diagnostics laboratory, after the company determined that an unauthorized party accessed its network in June and accessed data stored there.
The company disclosed that it identified suspicious activity in a limited portion of its information technology environment on or around June 15, 2026, and that the investigation determined the intrusion occurred between June 11 and June 17. A file review to determine what was involved and who was affected was completed on or about July 30, as detailed by HIPAA Journal. Letters went out after that.
