MOVEit breach also impacted major pension systems and insurers

Posted on June 24, 2023 by Dissent

Cathie Anderson of The Sacramento Bee reported that the nation’s two biggest  pension systems were impacted by the MOVEit breach:

The California Public Employees’ Retirement System reported Wednesday that hackers stole the names, social security numbers, birth dates and other confidential information of roughly 769,000 retirees and beneficiaries….. CalSTRS, the nation’s second-largest, said Thursday it, too, was hacked through the same vendor, though it denied to offer specifics on who was affected.

The third-party vendor involved was PBI Research Services + Berwyn Group, who notified these clients on June 4 and June 6. CalPer’s notification can be found on CalPer’s website.

The insurance sector was also affected by the MOVEit breach. Bill Toulas reports that a third PBI Research Services + BerwynGroup client, Genworth Financial, is a life insurance provider in Virginia affected by the MOVEit breach. They reported that between 2.5 and 2.7 million insurance members or employees were affected.

Wilton Reassurance, a New York-based insurance provider, reported that 1,482,490 of its customers had their data stolen.
