The security of personal health information of up to 1,000 people
could have been compromised when a laptop was stolen from Yale Medical
School.

Attorney General Richard Blumenthal said his office is investigating
to determine what caused the security breach and whether state or
federal laws have been violated.

“Yale Medical School is cooperating with my office -- recognizing that
it has a profound responsibility to safeguard sensitive health
information, and must be accountable to approximately 1,000
individuals whose information may be at risk,” Blumenthal said. “My
office has begun an investigation to identify the cause of the breach
and assure ongoing protections for patients.”
