The American Association of Critical-Care Nurses (AACN) recently announced a data breach affecting individuals whose personal information was compromised. The incident was reported on August 29, 2025, and those impacted are receiving official notification letters from AACN detailing the exposure.
While the specific types of data involved have not been publicly detailed, it is understood that personal information belonging to individuals was accessed without authorization.
