"Medical Data Leaked on GitHub Due to Developer Errors"

A Dutch researcher discovered nine separate files of highly sensitive personal health information (PHI) from apps such as Office 365 and Google G Suite from nine different health organizations on GitHub.  The nine files included 200,000 patient records.  The information was exposed not through an attack or unauthorized entry into the healthcare systems, but because of developers' improper configuration of access controls and hardcoded credentials in the storing of the information.
