Community Health Action of Staten Island (A part of Sun River Health) Listed by genesis Ransomware Group

On February 13, 2026, Community Health Action of Staten Island, part of Sun River Health, appeared on the leak site of the Genesis ransomware group. The nonprofit organization’s internal files were allegedly exfiltrated during a ransomware attack, placing the personal and medical information of patients, employees, and their families at risk.

What's Publicly Reported from Reporting

Public reporting indicates that Genesis posted a listing for Community Health Action of Staten Island on its dark-web leak portal. The data consists of internal files exfiltrated after the group gained access to the organization’s systems. No exact victim count has been released, and the precise volume or types of records remain unclear from available screenshots and descriptions on the leak site. The incident follows the typical Genesis pattern of stealing data before encrypting systems and then threatening to publish it unless a ransom is paid.

Available reporting describes the organization as a nonprofit that provides health services in the Staten Island area. Because it is part of the larger Sun River Health network, the breach could affect records tied to a broader patient population than initially apparent.

Why This Matters for You and Your Family

When a community health provider is hit, the people most exposed are often local families who used its services for routine care, vaccinations, counseling, or emergency visits. Medical records, addresses, dates of birth, Social Security numbers, and insurance details are exactly the kind of information that can be used for identity theft, insurance fraud, or targeted scams against you or your children.

Even if you never received a notice, the lack of confirmed victim numbers means anyone who interacted with the organization in recent years should assume their information may have been taken. Criminals do not wait for official letters; they begin testing stolen data within days of it appearing on leak sites.

The Doxxing and Identity-Chain Risks

Health data rarely stays isolated. A single leaked email or phone number can be linked to usernames on social media, gaming platforms, and shopping accounts. Once attackers map these connections, they can impersonate you, reset passwords, or harass family members. Credential leaks like this one frequently cascade into account takeovers on unrelated services, especially when the same password was reused.

Children’s gaming accounts are particularly vulnerable because kids often use family email addresses or phone numbers for sign-ups. A breach at a health clinic can therefore become the starting point for doxxing chains that expose a child’s real name, school, or home address through their online handle.

Genesis Ransomware Track Record

Public reporting attributes the Genesis ransomware group with emerging in 2023 as both a ransomware operator and initial-access broker. The group has listed hundreds of organizations on its leak site, with notable prior victims including schools, local governments, and healthcare providers. Their typical playbook involves stealthy initial access, thorough exfiltration of sensitive files, followed by extortion demands that combine encryption threats with data-leak warnings. Genesis often sets short deadlines and escalates by publishing samples when payment is not received.
