A cybersecurity company is still investigating the incident and UC San Diego Health said the review will finish in September.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;In addition to using sophisticated tools to parse and search the data, UC San Diego Health is also conducting a manual review of the affected data. This is a labor-intensive and time-consuming process that involves hundreds of hours of detailed review and analysis,&#8221; the hospital said. &nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;In addition to notifying individuals whose personal information may have been involved, UC San Diego Health has taken remediation measures which have included, among other steps, changing employee credentials, disabling access points, and enhancing our security processes and procedures.&#8221;<\/p>\n<section class=\"sharethrough-top placeholder\" data-component=\"medusaContentRecommendation\" data-medusa-content-recommendation-options=\"{&quot;promo&quot;:&quot;promo_zd_recommendation_sharethrough_top_in_article_desktop&quot;,&quot;spot&quot;:&quot;dfp-in-article&quot;}\"> <\/section>\n<p>The academic health system of the University of California, San Diego said it will send notices to the students, employees, and patients whose personal information was contained in the accounts by September 30.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The hospital will offer free credit monitoring and identity theft protection services through Experian IdentityWorks for one year.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>A call center has been created for those who may be concerned about their information. Those affected can call 1-855-797-1160 from 6:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. PT Monday through Friday and from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. PT Saturday and Sunday.
