The flaw associated with the MOVEit flaw keeps collecting victim. The latest victim is SunLife Financial in the US. Here’s the details:
While Sun Life U.S. does not use MOVEit, the file transfer software that was targeted in the attack, one of its vendors, Pension Benefit Information (PBI), said some members’ personal information was accessed by an unauthorized third party during the incident.
Sun Life says it shares certain information with PBI to support business operations such as paying life insurance and related benefits in a timely manner.
Additionally, PBI uses MOVEit to transfer files internally and between parties.
Hackers were able to access information such as name, Social Security Number, policy and account number, and/or date of birth of some members and account holders.
However, no financial information like account values or medical claims were exposed, according to a notice from Sun Life U.S.
I swear that tomorrow I’ll be sharing another victim of MOVEit. Either directly because they use MOVEit or a company they work with does. Either way, the results are that it doesn’t end well.
The company assured its members they take information security “very seriously” and are conducting an investigation with PBI.
