Alberta College of Paramedics privacy breach put information of thousands of members at risk


A breach in the Alberta College of Paramedics navigation portal may have put the personal information of thousands of first responders in the province at risk. ACP is a regulatory college that governs and regulates the province's emergency medical responders, emergency medical technicians, and emergency medical technologists. The regulatory college said in a release that there was a security breach and they have "contained the access." ACP said during the breach people with a login could "log into the system and view another practitioner's information in our database." Furthermore, it was possible for someone not registered with ACP to create a username and password and view the information.
