University System of Georgia: 800K exposed in 2023 MOVEit attack
2024-05-08 21:48

The University System of Georgia is sending data breach notifications to 800,000 individuals whose data was exposed in the 2023 Clop MOVEit attacks.

The Clop ransomware gang leveraged a zero-day vulnerability in Progress Software MOVEit Secure File Transfer solution in late May 2023 to conduct a massive worldwide data theft campaign.

The organization submitted a sample of the data breach notice to the Office of the Maine Attorney General yesterday, stating that the data breach impacts 800,000 people.

The entry on Maine's portal lists a driver's license number or identification card number as exposed data types, although these aren't mentioned in the notice.

Emsisoft's dedicated counter of MOVEit victims lists 2,771 impacted organizations and nearly 95 million individuals whose personal data lies in Clop's servers.
