SCPHD’s Data Breach Investigation

On December 9, 2025, SCPHD was notified that TriZetto Provider Solutions (TPS), a vendor they rely on, experienced a data breach. TPS identified suspicious activity within its web portal on October 2, 2025, which allowed unauthorized access to certain systems used by healthcare providers. Upon discovery, TPS immediately engaged the external cybersecurity expert Mandiant to review the affected application and remove the threat.

TPS reported the breach to law enforcement and initiated a full investigation to determine the scope of the incident.

These reports contained protected health information (PHI) for individuals associated with SCPHD.

The breach affected approximately 154 individuals connected to SCPHD, including patients and primary insureds. While the unauthorized access did not involve financial data such as payment card or bank account information, it did expose a range of sensitive personal information.

When Did This Breach Occur?

The breach occurred over a period starting in November 2024, with unauthorized access continuing until October 2, 2025, when TPS identified suspicious activity. Upon discovery, TPS took immediate action to secure the system and remove the threat. The incident was reported to law enforcement, and the affected individuals were notified shortly after the investigation concluded on December 9, 2025.
