On April 10, 2024, a BlackSuit ransomware assault disclosed 954,177 personally identifiable information, forcing Young Consulting to send out data breach notifications.
Young Consulting (formerly Connexure) is an Atlanta-based software solutions provider that specialises in the employer stop-loss marketplace. It helps insurance carriers, brokers, and third-party administrators manage, market, underwrite, and administer stop-loss insurance policies.
Earlier this week, the company began notifying nearly a million individuals about a data breach. Among them are Blue Shield of California subscribers whose data was stolen during a ransomware campaign carried out by BlackSuit earlier this year.
The network intrusion occurred on April 10, but the company only noticed it three days later when the perpetrators triggered the encryption of its systems. The subsequent investigation was completed on June 28, finding that the following information had been hacked: full names, Social Security numbers (SSNs), dates of birth, and insurance claim details.
