Quest Diagnostics disclosed in a regulatory filing on Thursday that an unauthorized party accessed its Quanum Lab Services Manager, a platform where clients order tests and look up results. The company found the breach on Wednesday and notified federal law enforcement. The number of patients and records affected is unknown, and Quest said the breach is not related to the PHP vulnerabilities disclosed that week.

TL;DR Quest Diagnostics reports unauthorized access to its Quanum Lab Services Manager platform exposing some patient records, scope still under investigation.
