"KeyBank: Hackers of Third-Party Provider Stole Customer Data"

It has recently been discovered that hackers stole personal data, including Social Security numbers, addresses, and account numbers of home mortgage holders at KeyBank, because of a breach of a third-party vendor that serves multiple corporate clients. The hackers obtained the information on July 5 after breaking into computers at the insurance services provider Overby-Seawell Company. KeyBank, which operates in 15 states and has close to $200 billion in assets, would not say how many of its customers were affected or answer any other questions about the breach. In a statement, it said it was notified of the data theft on Aug. 4, and KeyBank systems and operations were unaffected. KeyBank stated that Georgia-based Overby-Seawell “suffered a cybersecurity incident that compromised data of its corporate clients.” KeyBank said Overby-Seawell had notified law enforcement and was investigating the breach with the help of third-party cybersecurity experts
