What Happened?
Recently, Valley Radiology reported to the Attorney General of California that it had experienced a data breach in which sensitive personally identifiable information in its care may have been compromised. According to the breach notice, the organization detected suspicious activity on its computer systems on or around September 15, 2025. In response to this discovery, Valley Radiology initiated an investigation to determine the nature and scope of the incident.
During the investigation, the organization determined that sensitive personal information within its systems, related to its patients, may have been accessed by an unauthorized third party during the breach. Following this finding, Valley Radiology began reviewing its data to determine what specific information may have been impacted and to identify the individuals who may have been affected.
As of March 5, 2026, Valley Radiology has not publicly disclosed the exact types of personal information that may have been exposed. However, under California state reporting guidelines, personal information can include several categories of sensitive data. This may include an individual’s name and Social Security number, as well as identification numbers issued on government documents such as a driver’s license number, California identification card number, tax identification number, passport number, military identification number, or other unique government-issued identifiers.
Personal information may also include financial details, such as an account number or a credit or debit card number when combined with any required security code, access code, or password that would allow access to an individual’s financial account. In addition, medical information and health insurance information may fall under this definition. Other types of protected information may include unique biometric data, such as a fingerprint or retina or iris image used to authenticate an individual’s identity. Information collected through the use or operation of an automated license plate recognition system may also be considered personal information, along with genetic data.
Notifications have begun to be sent to affected individuals, providing information about the incident and the types of personal information that may have been involved.
