Massive Cyberattack Reveals Personally Identifying Details of Four Million Individuals - Company Admits Unidentified Entity Potentially Stolen Names, Residences, and Social Security Information
Headline: VeriSource Data Breach: Millions at Risk of Identity Theft
Houston-based VeriSource Services Inc. (VSI) reveals a massive data breach, putting the personal information of four million individuals at the mercy of potential identity thieves and privacy violations.
On February 28, 2024, the security team at VSI discovered suspicious activity within their network. Upon investigation, they unearthed an unauthorized access that compromised customer records containing precious information, such as names, addresses, dates of birth, Social Security numbers, and genders.
东西
Upon recognizing the breach, VSI swiftly secured their network and enlisted the help of a top-tier digital forensics and incident response firm. After completing a thorough examination, VSI revealed that an unknown hacker had pilfered sensitive data on or about February 27, 2024.
Despite their best efforts, VSI has yet to observe any evidence of the stolen data being misused [1]. As a precaution, the company issued notifications to those affected and offered identity theft protection services, which include dark web monitoring and a $1 million insurance reimbursement policy [1].
Although still uncertain, the incident prompted VSI to report it to the FBI and strengthen its security protocols to deter future breaches [1].
