Quick show of hands: whose data hasn’t been stolen in the mass exploitation of Progress Software’s vulnerable MOVEit file transfer application?
Embarrassingly antivirus biz Avast is among these new-ish victims, which recently disclosed the crooks accessed some “low-risk customer personal information.”
“We take this seriously and are notifying impacted customers and offering dark web monitoring services free of charge,” the developer xeeted on October 25.
As expected, users aren’t too happy with Avast’s “shameless marketing tactics” and took to a web forum to voice their complaints.
The Virgin Pulse-owned company has sent notification letters to more than 1.6 million patients alerting them that their names, addresses, dates of birth, and health information may have been stolen by miscreants abusing MOVEit, according to a November 18 filing with the Maine Attorney General’s office.
By August, it determined criminals had, in fact, managed to “exfiltrate certain data,” and in October Welltok began notifying Sutter Health patients that their personal information may have been accessed.
