MOVEit Data Breach Impacted Companies

The recent MOVEit data breach has impacted a lot of heavy hitting companies. With a rise in data attacks over the past few years, it’s important to stay up to date on the latest breaches. For those who are unfamiliar, MOVEit is a managed file transfer product.

It provides secure collaboration and automated file transfers of sensitive data without the need for scripting. MOVEit recently announced a vulnerability that was attacked by a hacker group. This opening allowed hackers to access data of some of the largest companies in the US and Europe. It’s a bit ironic that this breach occurred on a product that hangs its hat on security. You can never be too careful with your data these days!

What companies are affected by MOVEit Data Breach?

Over the past few days, an estimated 158 companies have reported being impacted by this MOVEit data breach. Some of the companies impacted by this breach include:

  • Siemens Energy
  • Schneider Electric
  • UCLA
  • U.S. Department of Health and Human Services
  • The National Student Clearinghouse
  • U.S. Department of Energy and Agriculture
  • Tennessee’s Consolidated Retirement System
  • California’s Public Employee’s Retirement System
  • U.S. State-level agencies in Illinois, Missouri, Minnesota, Colorado, Oregon and Louisiana.
  • Shell
  • PricewaterhouseCoopers
  • EY
  • Johns Hopkins
  • University of Georgia

The list of impacted companies is very scary! Some of these entities, like the National Student Clearinghouse, contain an incredible amount of sensitive data. Consider everyone that has/had a federal student loan, their information has now been compromised.

Moving forward, if you’ve had any interaction with the listed companies, be sure to check their website for more information. If you have access to identity protection software, be sure to monitor your data for any new or unexpected activity.

We will keep track of the latest updates to this list and continue updating as things develop!
