Fintech banking platform Hatch Bank has reported a data breach after hackers stole the personal information of almost 140,000 customers from the company's Fortra GoAnywhere MFT secure file-sharing platform.
As reported by TechCrunch, data breach notifications sent to impacted customers and filed with Attorney General's offices warned that hackers exploited a vulnerability in the GoAnywhere MFT software to steal the data of 139,493 customers.
"On January 29, 2023, Fortra experienced a cyber incident when they learned of a vulnerability located in their software," warned the Hatch Bank data breach notification.
This is the second confirmed data breach caused by the GoAnywhere MFT attacks, with the first one disclosed by Community Health Systems last month.
While Hatch Bank did not disclose what threat actor conducted the attack, the Clop ransomware gang told BleepingComputer that they were behind these attacks and had stolen data from over 130 organizations.
While it is unknown if Clop is demanding similar ransoms to victims of the GoAnywhere MFT attacks, if the gang follows similar tactics, we will begin to see stolen data appear on their data leak site in the future.
