Registered letters are being sent to 3,716 victims of a privacy breach after WCB claim information was released due to "human error," say city officials. Claims involved are from 2012 to 2016 and von Hollen said no personal contact information like addresses, phone numbers, emails, social insurance numbers, personal health numbers, dates of birth or banking information were released. University of Calgary professor and cybersecurity expert Tom Keenan said these victims shouldn't worry about their personal information being used nefariously. "On the other hand, it's health information, and nobody really likes to think that health related information is in the hands of anybody other that who it should be," he added. Von Hollen said officials believe the breach was not malicious in nature.
