THE Opposition People’s National Party (PNP) has reiterated its call for the fast-tracking of a Cybersecurity Act following indications of a data breach at the National Health Fund (NHF) by Minister of Health Dr Christopher Tufton.

Addressing a post-Cabinet media briefing at Jamaica House on Wednesday Tufton put the nation on guard that personal information of some NHF clients may have been compromised.

Tufton noted that information has been circulating online about a breach of the database at the NHF and confirmed that there was a threat from a hacker group which claimed that it gained access to some data.
