MOVEit
We try to keep up and protect our IDentity and personal information.
A product used by a very large number of corporations,
institutions, and
governments called MOVEit had a severe vulnerability that hackers took
advantage of and stole large quantities of information for months before
being found. Many affected corporations may still be unaware of the data breach
or scope.
A lot of us are just now being notified of how much of our
data has been breached.
We are getting legal notification from publicly traded companies due to forced
SEC filings.
These legal notices may offer credit monitoring services.
The credit monitoring services
require our personal information to monitor that personal information.
A lot of these credit monitoring services we may have never
heard of. The contract is
between the breached company and the credit monitoring services. We probably
will
not know those details.
So, as never before we need to be Aware. Prepare.
Understand.
Details can be obtained from the Cyber Security SIG
presentations.
