Data breaches have increasingly become one of the most alarming threats to both individuals and organizations, posing significant risks to privacy, security, and financial well-being. Sensitive personal and health information, including Social Security numbers, medical records, financial data, and login credentials, is often stored electronically, making it a prime target for hackers and cybercriminals. These cyberattacks lead to identity theft, fraudulent transactions,  unauthorized access to confidential systems,  and a whole host of other problems that come with devastating consequences for victims.
High-profile cases, such as healthcare data breaches and ransomware attacks on large corporations, are getting more common. Our defenses are not keeping up with the vulnerability of electronic records and the growing sophistication of cybercriminals. Too often, companies do not make the investment needed to protect our privacy.
Whether targeting small businesses, major institutions, or individuals, these breaches underscore the critical importance of robust cybersecurity measures and immediate legal recourse for those affected. Protecting personal and medical information from cyberattacks has never been more crucial, as data breaches continue to grow in scale and impact.

If you or a loved one experienced pain, discomfort, or complications after receiving a BioZorb implant following breast cancer surgery, you are not alone. Across the United States, patients are taking legal action to hold the manufacturer, Hologic, accountable for the harm caused by this device.

The BioZorb implant, manufactured by Hologic, Inc., is a class II medical device first cleared by the FDA in 2012 under the 510(k) process. It is an implantable radiographic marker composed of a bioabsorbable material (polylactic acid) and six titanium radiopaque clips, which are designed to mark soft tissue sites during radiation therapy following breast cancer surgery. The device is intended to provide a three-dimensional marker for more precise radiation targeting while gradually dissolving in the body over time.

BioZorb works. But it has also been linked to several complications, including prolonged pain, discomfort, infection, device migration, and non-absorption. Many patients have reported the formation of hardened masses, scar tissue, and additional injuries at the implant site. The device has also been associated with increased radiation exposure and adverse reactions requiring further surgeries for removal.
