Dementia Singapore reports CARA app data breach after earlier M1 incident

Dementia Singapore said a cybersecurity incident on 1 November may have exposed the names, email addresses, phone numbers and membership IDs of users of its CARA mobile app in Singapore, and the agency is investigating the breach. The disclosure follows earlier reports that telecom provider M1 had confirmed a data breach affecting customers' personal details, though not payment or banking information, and that the incident had been contained. M1 and the healthcare platform Doctor Anywhere later reported separate breaches that also exposed personal information but not financial or clinical records.
