On Feb. 26, 2025, Jacksonville Beach Dermatology and its management company, DermCare Management, identified suspicious activity on their computer systems. An investigation was launched and on March 3, 2025 it was determined a cybercriminal may have copied certain patient information from the network.
The data breach compromised both both personally identifiable information (PII) and protected health information (PHI). Jacksonville Beach Dermatology posted an updated Notice of Data Security Event on its website on May 13, 2025.
Exposed information may include names, Social Security numbers, driver’s license numbers, financial account information, medical information and health insurance information. The exact number of affected individuals has not been released.
Jacksonville Beach Dermatology responded by securing its network and launching an investigation in coordination with DermCare Management. A review is taking place and impacted individuals will be notified by mail.

A breach notice means your personal details could be circulating far beyond the organization involved. One practical step is continuous monitoring: services such as Identity Defender (included with an ExpressVPN subscription) can automatically check dark-web markets, flag new credit-file activity, and request removal of your information from data-broker sites.
This kind of “early-warning system” can’t undo a breach, but it can help you spot misuse quickly and limit further exposure. ExpressVPN is offering 61% off, risk-free for 30 days, with ID Theft Insurance included and no extra cost for those who sign up for one or two years.
