Yacht giant MarineMax data breach impacts over 123,000 people
Posted in Commentary with tags Hacked on July 17, 2024 by itnerdRecreational boat and yacht retailer MarineMax is notifying over 123,000 individuals whose personal information was stolen in a March security breach claimed by the Rhysida ransomware gang. The hack was discovered back in March but is only being reported now. More on that in a moment.
Rogier Fischer, CEO, Hadrian had this to say:
Any organization that faces such a situation should focus on both immediate and long-term corrective actions, according to Rogier Fischer, CEO of Netherlands-based cybersecurity service Hadrian.”In the short term, they need to enhance security measures, strengthen access controls, and provide employee training to prevent future breaches. They should also automate their monitoring and detection capabilities,” he said.”For the long term, conducting a comprehensive security audit, updating their incident response plan, and moving to an automated compliance and reporting process are crucial.”Additionally, investing in advanced cybersecurity technologies and establishing robust cybersecurity governance will help them mitigate future risks and improve their overall security posture, he added.
My problem with this is that this breach is that the hack was discovered in March. It’s July and we’re only learning of this now. There’s something seriously wrong with that and I along with those who have been affected would really like to know what the deal is with that.
