Timeline
Summary
Sincera, formerly known as Abington Reproductive Medicine, appeared on a Maze ransomware leak site with no subsequent response to outreach attempts despite multiple outreach efforts via email and phone. The proof supplied by the attackers did not correspond to a medical practice, raising doubts about the legitimacy of the listing. No public notice, press release, or regulator filing has been observed, and the entity has not communicated any patient notification or breach remediation steps.

Description
In the Maze Team leak site listings for 2020, Abington Reproductive Medicine was added as a victim. The listing occurred after the group had previously added other medical entities and followed the pattern of naming victims and dumping data to pressure ransom payment. The proof material that Maze posted alongside the listing did not contain any medical practice related files, according to the reviewer’s observation. At the time of the listing, the organization operated under the name Abington Reproductive Medicine and later rebranded to Sincera. No further details about the date of the listing or the specific files dumped were provided in the source material.
Abington Reproductive Medicine (later Sincera) did not respond to two email inquiries sent by DataBreaches.net seeking comment on the incident. The organization also issued no public statement, press release, or website notice indicating a ransomware attack or data exposure. No entry for the incident appears in the HHS public breach tool, and no notification was found on any state attorney general’s website. Because the proof provided by Maze was unrelated to medical practice, the source material cannot confirm whether any protected health information was accessed or exfiltrated. Consequently, the scope of any potential impact on patients, employees, or systems remains unspecified in the available reports.
