The HSE are managing this process. Where there is evidence that data associated with an individual was accessed as part of the criminally motivated cyber attack on the HSE in May 2021, those people are being contacted individually and offered the opportunity to review what data was accessed and engage with the HSE team. A similar process is underway at Mercy University Hospital, as a voluntary hospital in Cork.
