www.waynefamilypractice.com Listed by Onyx Ransomware Group

On November 21, 2022, the medical practice waynefamilypractice.com appeared on the leak site operated by the Onyx ransomware group. The listing states that internal files were exfiltrated during a ransomware attack, placing anyone whose records were held by this New York-area family medicine clinic at risk of identity exposure.

Details from the Leak Site

The Onyx ransomware leak site explicitly lists www.waynefamilypractice.com and claims the group stole internal data. The disclosure does not quantify how many patient records were taken, nor does it list the exact file types or specific data fields involved. It simply states that internal files were exfiltrated in a ransomware incident. The listing does not provide a public sample of the stolen data, which is consistent with many Onyx postings that withhold proof until negotiations fail.

Why This Matters for You and Your Family

If you or any member of your family has ever been a patient at Wayne Family Practice, your personal health information, contact details, insurance records, and possibly Social Security numbers may now sit in an attacker-controlled archive. Health data is especially sensitive because it can be used to commit medical identity theft, file fraudulent insurance claims in your name, or pressure you into paying to keep it private. Even when the exact number of affected records remains unknown, the exposure of internal practice files creates concrete risk for every past and current patient.

Doxxing and Identity-Chain Risks

Stolen medical practice files frequently contain multiple pieces of information about the same person: name, date of birth, address, phone number, email, and sometimes employer or spouse details. Attackers can chain these fragments with data from other breaches to build a complete identity profile. A single leaked email or phone number from this incident can unlock additional accounts, especially when the same password was reused. This is exactly why credential leaks like this one cascade into account takeovers and doxxing chains that can affect both your professional life and your children’s online presence.

Onyx Ransomware Group Track Record

Public reporting attributes the emergence of Onyx to mid-2022. The group has targeted organizations across healthcare, education, and small business sectors. Its typical playbook involves initial access through phishing or exploited remote desktop services, followed by claimed exfiltration of sensitive files before deploying ransomware. Onyx then uses a dual-extortion model: demanding payment to decrypt systems and a separate payment to prevent publication of the stolen data. The group maintains an active leak site where it posts victim organizations that refuse to pay, applying steady pressure through countdown timers and occasional data samples.

What to do

• Run a DoxxScan to map every link between your handles, emails, phone numbers, and real identity, with cleanup handled by the service.

• Rotate any password you ever used at Wayne Family Practice or related patient portals anywhere it has been reused, and switch to 2FA through an authenticator app instead of SMS.
• Cover the entire household with DoxxScan family protection, which extends to dependents and children’s gaming accounts that often chain back to the same address or parent email.
• Let remediation specialists manage takedown requests for any exposed information appearing on data broker sites or underground forums.
