Editorial Standards
Patient Protect and the Secure Care Research Institute are committed to publishing accurate, well-sourced information.
We cover a fast-moving market. Breach investigations evolve, affected-patient counts change, vendors update their systems and practices, and laws and regulatory guidance continue to develop. We work to keep our research and editorial content current, but newer or more authoritative information can emerge after publication.
If something we have published appears incorrect, outdated, or incomplete — or if you have information that supersedes the source material we relied upon — we welcome the opportunity to review it.
When warranted, we will review the underlying evidence and update the published record.

How we handle corrections
- Material factual corrections may result in content being updated.
- Updated pages retain their original publication date and, where a review has taken place, show a separate last-reviewed date.
- We evaluate corrections against available evidence and source material.
- A submission does not itself require a change. The underlying evidence does.
Publication and review dates
Where a page carries a last-reviewed date, that date records an editorial review of the substance of the page — not a routine site deployment or a change to formatting. Pages that have not been reviewed since publication show only their publication date, which is why most content shows a single date.
