Why Was There a Settlement?
The lawsuit claimed MD Now failed to implement adequate data security, which allowed unauthorized parties to access patient data in May 2024. MD Now denies wrongdoing but agreed to settle to avoid the risks and costs of continued litigation. The company has also committed to enhancing its cybersecurity for at least two years as part of the resolution.
