"The Latest Victim of the MOVEit Data Breach is the Department of Health and Human Services"
Federal health officials have recently notified Congress of a data breach that could involve the information of more than 100,000 people. A representative of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services said Thursday that attackers gained access to the department’s data by exploiting a vulnerability in widely used file-transfer software. Other government agencies, major pension funds, and private businesses also have been affected by a Russian ransomware gang’s so-called supply chain hack of the software MOVEit. The HHS official did not provide details on the type of data affected but said none of the department’s systems or networks were compromised.
