A data breach at the New York Blood Center has exposed the personal information of nearly 194,000 people. According to a notification from the organization, an internal investigation determined that an unauthorized party accessed the NYBCe network between January 20th and January 26th and “acquired copies of a subset of files.”

The personal information that was exposed in the leak includes names, Social Security numbers, state issued ID numbers (drivers license numbers), bank account information (for those who participated in direct deposit), health information and test results.
