I got notified by anthem. subject line: Important Update from Anthem, Inc.
And the first paragraph is: Safeguarding your personal, financial and medical information is one of our
top priorities, and because of that, we have state-of-the-art information
security systems to protect your data. However, despite our efforts, Anthem
Blue Cross was the target of a very sophisticated external cyber attack.
These attackers gained unauthorized access to Anthem’s IT system and have
obtained personal information from our current and former members such as
their names, birthdays, medical IDs/social security numbers, street
addresses, email addresses and employment information, including income
data. Based on what we know now, there is no evidence that credit card or
medical information (such as claims, test results or diagnostic codes) were
targeted or compromised.
So yeah, safeguarding is apparently not that much of a priority.This from a fucking company that uses an online payment system that limits your password to 8 characters. |
