An administrative judge has dismissed the Federal Trade Commission’s data security case against cancer testing company LabMD, marking the first defeat for an agency that has successfully brought such cases against dozens of companies.
In a ruling posted late on Friday, D. Michael Chappell, chief administrative law judge for the FTC, ruled that the agency failed to prove LabMD had harmed customers by mistakenly exposing a file of patient data on a filesharing network.
