Profile
Al Zahra Private Medical Centre, also known as Al Zahra Hospital and Al Zahra Medical Centre, is a healthcare organisation based in the United Arab Emirates. Its headquarters are located in the UAE, though the specific emirate is not disclosed in the available sources. As indicated by its aliases, the entity operates as a private medical centre and hospital. The organisation delivers medical and hospital services to patients within the region. It serves the local population and potentially expatriate communities seeking private healthcare. The name reflects its role in providing clinical care and related health services.
In August 2016, Al Zahra Private Medical Centre experienced a security breach of its website. The incident was carried out by a hacker using the alias "websites-hunter." The attacker disclosed the breach publicly to highlight what they perceived as inadequate security practices. Compromised data included over 4,400 job applicant records containing names, contact details and resumes. Additionally, 644 patient feedback entries were exposed, comprising personally identifiable information and sensitive medical details such as treatment reasons and insurance challenges. At the time of reporting, the medical centre had not publicly acknowledged the breach or confirmed the incident despite notification attempts.
