TOO LATE TE WHATU ORA IT’S GONE GLOBAL….

Barry Young once again before the court yesterday 23^rd February  2024. Pleading Not Guilty as he is accused by Apa of Te Whatu Ora of a data leak of personal info referencing that of 12,000 or more online. Barry is charged with dishonestly speaking out about Te Whatu Ora  Health Agency  Data online. Judge Warburton remanded Barry Young on Bail. As Barry Young said as he was leaving court “Truth Is Not A Crime’. The article in mainstream propaganda again call Barry and Liz conspiracy theorist as the Weaponizing of Health unfolds worldwide, more information is being exposed by expert professional and medical professionals worldwide.  But Barry’s case is very significant as we have a smaller population, which is evidentiality of much use to those that are professionally medically exposing the truth worldwide. Therefore NZ is on the map in this instance. All eyes on NZ.

Te Whatu Ora reported this is a complex investigation, there is a collaboration between national and international experts. They are starting to contact every person effected by Barry’s Leak of information. They are working with online security experts nationally, internationally to monitor for signs of the exposure of data online HOW CONVENIENT

Reference was made to a 2021 Waikato DHB report on Cyber attacks which said “ Te Whatu Ora needs to think like a hacker when building its security software”. In May 2021 ransomware cyber attacks brought DHBs, hospitals, services to a complete halt, as systems were worked on to be restored. Doctors had to work on whiteboards, and use hard copies for gathering information. 6^th December 2022 1,000’s of coroners files, post mortem reports caught up in Ministry of Justice hack. Referencing 14,500 coroners files, 4000 post mortum reports nationwide of a sensitive personal information.

Brooke Van Veldon speaker said “there is significant evidence that NZrs personal infor – data is on the dark web, this is a huge concern, ongoing incidences. People who are undergoing radiation therapy for cancer have had to travel beyonf their residential area to other areas in NZ to receive cancer treatment. Referenced also 400,000 NZrs could be affected, these are vulnerable people whom are already suffering  from ongoing serious harm.

Investigations have shown that DHBs lack vital IT Infrastructure, network security is outdated inadequate and this has increased cyber security attacks, there are serious security issues, therefore patient private data is never safe, and has not been without risk. HOW CONVENIENT. 30^th May 2023 Ministry of Health referenced a report that DHB Computer systems seriously need an upgrade, government failed to follow through.   Andrew Little confirmed what Brooke Van Veldon had said as to her serious concerns as to cyber attacks, saying “patients information is accessible to others worldwide We have known that for some time”. Melissa Lee saying that Cyber Attackers go for weaknesses.

Linking more domestic incidents to financially motivated crims and the growing effective malicious cyber tools, vulnerabilities the public are facing, infrastructure is made easier for cyber attackers to work at scale, sophistication causing national harm. And the need to improve NZ Cyber Security System Framework, saying she was getting expert advice from across NZ.

Barry said “I urge anyone in the Police, anyone in the services who have access to information that needs to come out, please, please do the right thing and end this”. Te Whatu Ora is accusing Barry of leaking 12,000 of peoples personal information as a result of a data breach. HOW COVENIENT.

They must put things right to protect NZrs personal information, keep it safe from cyber attacks. There is no room for any organizations, govt agencies to be complacent in protecting New Zealand private information held in their data systems. TRUST IS HARD WON… EASILY LOST’

HOW CONVENIENT, PROTECTING THE BACKS OF THOSE THAT DID LEAK THOUSANDS OF DATA FILES, NZRS PRIVATE INFO, HEALTH RECORDS, BEREAVEMENT RECORDS, POST MORTUM, CLINICAL CARDIO… JUST TARGET BARRY YOUNG FOR ALL THOSE INJUSTICES, SERIOUS HARMS THE GOVERNMENT HAS DONE TO VUNERABLE NEW ZEALANDERS.

(25 page PDF author Prof Stuart E Madnick Ph.D December 2023). The Continued Threat to Personal Data. Key Factors Behind the 2023 Increase. (December 2023) Over 2.6 billion personal records were breached in 2021 and 2022 (1.1 billion in 2021 and 1.5 billion in 2022).  * The number of data breaches more than tripled between 2013 and 2022.2    * According to a 2023 report, over 80% of data breaches involved data stored in the cloud.   * In the first three quarters of 2023, the number of ransomware attacks increased by almost 70% compared to the first three quarters of 2022.  * 98% of organizations have a relationship with a vendor that experienced a data breach within the last two years  * In the first eight months of 2023 alone, over 360 million people were victims of corporate and institutional data breaches.   * In the first three quarters of 2023, one in four people in the US had their health data exposed in a data breach

RNZ Reported 3^rd June 2021 The number of cyber security incidents reported in New Zealand has risen 25% since this time last year (2020-2021). Government agency CERT NZ’s quarterly report shows there have been 1431 cyber security incidents in the first quarter of this year. The financial loss due to cyber attacks is 7%. Almost a ¼ of the breaches resulted in financial loss totaling $3 Million. Six cases involved in the loss of $100,000 or more. 278 incidents were referred to the police, an increase of 46% compared with the previous quarter

Ministry of Justice chief operating officer Carl Crafar said at this stage, it’s believed the incident affected access to approximately 14,500 coronial files relating to the transportation of deceased people, and approximately 4000 post-mortem reports. Stuff NZ reported 5^th October 2019 ‘Up to 1 million NZ patients data has been breached in a criminal cyber hack. Tu Ora Compass Health CEO Martin Hefforf confirmed this, that medical data could be in criminal hands after cyber attacks dating back years.  Wellington, Kapiti and Wairarapa Primary Health Organization (PHO) Tu Pra Compass Health confirmed anyone enrolled in a medical centre in the region between 2002- 2019 could be affected.

The extent of the patient files that were accessed was impossible to ascertain. PHO’s held individual data such as medical centre enrolment information including names, addressed, ethnicities, ages. It also held data that could be linked to individual patients advised on stopping smoking and alcohol related intake issues. Some information relating to children that were due for their immunizations, also those that were having diabetes checks, flu jabs, women recalled for cervical screening and people due for heart and diabetes checks. Also mental health counselling service information on patients. The current population area covered was about 648,00, but information goes back to 2001- until 2019. Therefore this could be personal information on living and dead people as well.

A newly-released report into last year’s cyber attack of the Waikato District Health Board said Te Whatu Ora needs to “think like a hacker” when building its security softwares. The ransomware attack last May brought the DHB’s hospitals and services to a halt for days, as it tried to restore its IT systems.

RNZ reported 4^th July 2020 ‘Details of active COVID 19 cases leaked in privacy breach. Stating there has been a massive privacy breach, with the leak of personal details revealing the identity of New Zealand’s 18 active Covid cases. RNZ has seen a document that includes the full names, addresses, age and the names of the hotel and one hospital the 18 have been quarantining in. Newshub reported 6/12/2022 Thousands of corona’s files, post mortem reports caught up in ministry of Justice hack. National Cyber Security, Ministry of Health, also police found evidence of cyber hacks going back to 2016. It was said that they will never know if individual patient has been accessed, it is likely they would never know , it was said. It was unclear who was behind the attacks, where they originated from, for what purpose, though one theory was ‘harvesting information for the purpose of identity theft’

Te Whatu Ora reported on their website there had been a cyber security incident affecting an IT service provider that has impacted Access to Te Whatu Ora data relating to bereavement and carias services. I tapped on the link and this text came up.. Sorry we cant find this page you are looking for (No surprises here)

The Australian Senate  is referring to the Senate Inquiry to Draft Terms of Reference for a Future COVID Royal Commission, they had their first hearing yesterday 1^st Feb 2023  at the demands of  Malcom Roberts First Nation Party in Canberra. They focused on what Australians have to say as to the fully empowered Royal Commission into the COVID mismanagement in Australia. There were eleven submissions . Australia’s best research tool for interpreting adverse events from COVID jabs plus FOI Information has been published all in one place and its free, ‘OpenDAEN’ an easy to use database of TGA reported COVID19 Jabs Adverse Events on a non commercial, non profit website. (February 1^st 2024) NZ Government is not so forthcoming.

The quiet inquiry, New Zealanders will not get the blow by blow dramatic reports into the nations handling of COVID19 pandemic, the head of the inquiry said :it gets a lot of more work done that way” (RNZ 13/11/2023). Tony Blakely is the Chair of the NZ Commission into the COVID19 Inquiry. So many many people have spoken about their experiences  during the pandemic, especially the handling of this, the mandating, the surveillance, the character assassinating and the deliberate lies and indoctrination purposely pushed upon New Zealanders. The loss of jobs, not being able to go to loved ones funerals . The whole control, totalitarianism. The banks gained more profit as did corporations, big Tech and Big Pharma, digital id surveillance of every day law abiding citizens. The jab injured, severe harms the so called ‘River Of Filth’.  The only River Of Filth laid behind those closed doors of Parliament. And now it is reported that want to sell New Zealander short, it will make it easier.

The confidential setting of the meetings enables the commissioners – former government minister Hekia Parata, former Treasury head John Whitehead, and Blakely himself – to speak to a wide range of New Zealanders in a short period of time and have “free and frank” discussions.

This speaks for itself when Blakey says “We’re up to more than 200 organizations that we’ve spoken to in engagements, and we do that in a confidential setting so that we can cut to the chase. We can get more done in an hour than it might take eight hours in a courtroom to do.” And of course add ‘Identity Politics to the mix ‘The Inquiry will examine policy measures such as border closures, appropriate use of government power, and the impact on Māori within a Treaty of Waitangi context.’

This is what Blake said “Blakely says that feedback will be used to work out how it could be done better next time, and improve the way iwi and other providers are used. And, he says, the information could not only be used for the next pandemic, but between pandemics in other emergencies.’

Anthony Albanese Lies to the Australian People

May 26^th 2021 There was a widespread alarm as to what may happen to hugely sensitive patient and staff information from Waikato District Health Board where hackers had claimed to obtained scores of official records, documents containing names, phone numbers and addresses of patients and staff, this was referred to the police. Andrew Little refused to front up, but issued a statement instead offering assistance to Waikato DHB. . It  was reported to say “ Cyber experts say the danger is that the hackers could sell the data to other cyber crims, which could be used to scam victims whether a ransom was paid or not, there was no guarantee data would remain secure.

Waikato hospital was hit by a cyber attack in May 2021.. Microsoft got a lot of flack over hacks The government has received advice from a King’s Counsel lawyer, and from privacy impact experts, that using foreign-owned data centres – even if the centres themselves are in New Zealand – places the data under the legal jurisdiction of the foreign country, and raises the risk the other country could obtain the data. The US has a Cloud Act that raises this possibility. Officials appear ambivalent on the issue, various OIA documents have shown, and the New Zealand government is increasingly committed to moving public data to hyper-scale data centres

July 2021 another RNZ report that SIS was not including the DHBs in their implementing a new cyber security programme. RNZ reported 20^th December 2021 that the Health Minister announced $75.6 million over three years to plug cyber security gaps, to help health organizations improve their cyber security to protect sensitive information, to minimize risks of cyber attacks. (Obviously this needed to be done as patient and staff private personal info was at risk, but this funding was over 3 years – not for lets get it fixed right now, obviously leaving patients files – personal information seriously at risk, and knowing so.

 Reporting also that the system needed upgrading. Patients Rights Chairperson Carolyn Mckenzie said “this is a very serious matter that could have a huge impact on some-ones life” Saying that patients feel a sense of violation that some-one could be using their information to advantage themselves, there is a deep sense of betrayal of those patients that have been exposed. There is no way of compensating somebody for that”

The National Secretary of the APEX Union and the Resident Doctors Association Debrorah Powell said “This is just low life behaviour, patient and staff information that is confidential, its just so very wrong”. She added “for medical staff the confidentiality of patients information “goes to the heart of the relationship between doctor and patient”, where patients will not feel comfortable to share highly personal information with their doctor. The disrespecting of the fundamental health care relationship, which is very upsetting for patients”. Staff at the DHB were trying to deal with the fallout themselves which is also very distressing”

It was confirmed that documents included recent data on staff numbers, names, including financial records, contracts, complaints as well as sensitive information about patients. The files included screenshots identifying hundreds of patients and staff, some document spelling out diagnoses and medical information. RNZ reported this article taking huge care not to divulge sensitive information.

Fast forward 18 months on to 6^th December 2022 ‘Te Whatu Ora has lost 14,000 patient files amid cyber attacks relating to cardiac, inherited disease and bereavement care. (Confirmed by Te whatu Ora). The Ministry of Justice confirmed it had lost 14500 coronial files, approx. 4,000 post mortem examination reports due to a cyber attack.  RNZ reported 17^th December 2022 Te Whatu Ora was hacked, thousands of files and post mortem reports over the last 4 years were affected. The High Court granted an order to prevent files from being shared, or the publishing of these files obtained by the cyber attack. The Privacy Commissioner was notified in November 2022.

Ministry of Justice reported on their govt website that on 19^th December 2022 Te Whatu Ora and the Ministry Of Justice confirmed they had filed a joint filed legal proceedings in the High Court to prevent people sharing information by obtaining information by the cyber attack on sensitive coronial and health information in a recent cyber security incident. Saying they were working with the Privacy Commissioner. Te Whatu OOra and Ministry of Justuice added the legal proceedings are prudent and proactive, an extra step to protect the people whose private and sensitive information had been compromised.

RNZ also reported on 6^th December 2022 that an investigation was underway into the cyber attack which hit thousands of coronial and health files. Confirming this included 14,500 coronial files and approx. 4,000 post mortem reports, . Post mortem data from Northland, Waikato, Bay Of Plenty, Wellington, Horowhenua-Kapiti, Nelson-Marlborough, Otago and Southland regions from March 2020 to November 2022. Including 8,500 records of bereavement care services from Middlemore Hospital, 5500 files on the Cardiac and inherited Disease Register had also been impacted

Another article by RNZ 4^th October 2022 ‘Patient details could be compromised as large North Island GP Network hit by Cyber attack. 28^th September 2022 there was a cyber attack on Pinnacle Midlands Health Network’s regional primary health care practices across Taranaki, Rotorua, Turangi. Thames-Coromandal and Waikato. Pinnacle hold information like GP notes, however it was reported that the hackers appeared to have accessed information which included commercial and personal details from their system. They laid a complaint with police who then worked alongside Te Whatu Ora and a number of other govt agencies.

Stuff NZ reported 4^th October 2022 Cyber attack on Health Provider Pinnacle ‘ a wake up call’. A top doctor is calling a cyber attack on a major primary health provider that has compromised the details of potentially thousands of patient details a “wake up call to the sector”. Chief executive Justin Butcher said that while investigations are still underway it appears that before the breach was notified and the IT was contained the malicious actors accessed information from the system, which could include commercial and personal details. Patients should brace themselves for their medical information being dumped on the dark web or on the web itself.. In May 2021 the then-Waikato DHB was the subject of an attack by hackers.

It left IT systems at Waikato Hospital and its satellites crippled, ham-stringing health care across the region for more than a week and causing ongoing problems long after. Some of the material appeared on the internet after the government refused to pay a ransom. The list of documents suggested it included folders containing patient information as well as information about employees and the DHB’s financial affairs. The IT systems of the DHB, which is the fifth-largest in the country and provides care to more than 430,000 people, were rendered inaccessible.   Andrew Little said the Cyber attacks are the reality of this world.

Carry Young RNZ reported 19^th December 2023 ‘Leaked Vaccine Data, a chance a small number of people may be identified, as Te Whatu Ora reports they are employing International experts to investigate the COVID-19 Vax data leak stated Margi Apa CEO of Te Whatu Ora. RNZ reported 19th December 2023 ‘Leaked Vaccine Data, chance a small number of people may be identified.  8^th December Te Whatu Ora employs International experts to investigate COVI9 Vaccine leak,  stated Margie Apa CEO of Te Whatu Ora.

Referring to Barry Young, it had been reported by Te Whatu Ora there is a small chance a number of patients may be identified. I suggest Te Whatu Ora keep their own house in check where they are responsible for protecting thousands of patients files that were cyber attacked over the last four years. If personal, private info is out their the shame and blame should be put squarely on your shoulder not one of a man whose really cares about the people of NZ.

 Lets not just put the huge cyber security hacks out in the public arena. Thousands of patients files compromised, private info exposed. The Privacy Commissioner, the government knew about all these cyber attacks on the health system and post mortem files by November 2022 and before this. RNZ reported 9^th September 2023 that ‘Te Whatu Ora looked overseas for its transformational plans – a digital shift needed to transform health systems.

 The government was told in 2020 Health IT needed at least $2 billion in upgrades. The Health Minister had been warned of aging systems, IT funding was still lagging, according to Official Information Act request. Many current IT  systems being reported as old with significant limitations. The health system that generates more and more data requiring upgrades . Te whatu Ora you have been sprung, accusing Barry Young that there is a small chance he risked exposing a few patients details”. This is rubbish he shared no identifying patient details. The Govt Agencies allowed through their inaction on cyber security allowed thousands of patient files to be compromised. Do Not Blame Barry Young for your total Incompetence and no conscious of allowing 1,000’s of patients private information to be robbed. I call this a bloody great red flag.
