TALLAHASSEE — State health officials say a security breach in the
Organ and Tissue Donor Registry may have exposed thousands of donors'
personal information, including their social security numbers.

The Agency for Health Care Administrations said Monday it has
corrected the flaw, which may have allowed unauthorized users to view
the personal information of roughly 55,000 donors.

The database includes donors' names, addresses, birth dates and driver
license numbers. The agency is sending letters to inform individuals
of the flaw.
