Oson是一位来自圣地亚哥的38岁的网络工程师,他非法侵入前雇主的网络进行恶意报复。社区卫生门诊理事会(Council of Community Health Clinics,CCC)的网络那时候保为圣地亚哥和加利福尼亚州帝国县的17家保健诊所提供服务-包括医疗记录和测试结果。入侵之后,Oson删除了重要的病人的数据信息和结算信息,这使得数以千计的人的生命处于潜在的危险之中。Oson于2008年被正式指控,将遭受5年监禁,并支付144,358.83美元给CCC和264,979.00美元给NCHS。
September 5, 2007 (Computerworld) A former network engineer and technical services manager at the Council of Community Clinics (CCC) in San Diego could spend 10 years in prison after a federal jury convicted him last week of hacking into his former employer's computers and sabotaging patient data.

In addition, Jon Paul Oson could face fines of up to $250,000 for each of the two charges on which he was found guilty. Oson was arraigned in August 2006 on charges of willfully damaging protected computers belonging to the CCC, a nonprofit organization that provides a variety of services to 17 community health clinics in the area.
Oson worked at the CCC between May 2004 and October 2005, and resigned from the organization following what he perceived to be a negative performance evaluation, according to a statement announcing his conviction from the FBI's San Diego field office.
About two months after he resigned, Oson illegally accessed the the CCC's network and disabled a process for automatically backing up patient data belonging to North County Health Services (NCHS), a clinic that stored its patient management system on the CCC's computers.
A few days later, Oson attacked the CCC's network again and systematically deleted data and software on several servers, including the patient data for the NCHS clinic, the FBI said. The deleted data included billing details, scheduling of patient appointments, case histories, diagnoses and treatment plans. In addition, Oson deleted and attempted to delete data on several other servers used by the CCC and other clinics, according to the FBI.
"In addition to causing financial losses at CCC, NCHS and other CCC member clinics, the deletion of the data caused patient care at NCHS to suffer," the FBI statement said.
