Everbridge, an American software company focused on crisis management and public warning solutions, notified customers that unknown attackers had accessed files containing business and user data in a recent corporate systems breach.
They breached Everbridge's corporate systems using information collected in a previous phishing attack targeting some of its employees.
"While our investigation is ongoing and in its early stages, we are aware that the unauthorized party responsible for this activity has accessed a limited number of files on our corporate network containing certain business related data, including instances of admin user and limited other users' contact information, information about the subscribed Everbridge services, and enabled access methods," the company told customers in a breach notification seen by BleepingComputer.
A source close to the investigation told BleepingComputer that customer information was exposed in the corporate data accessed by the threat actors, and those impacted are being notified.
"Everbridge will enable multi-factor authentication for all accounts by June 3, 2024. If your organization supports Single Sign-On, we strongly recommend you enable SSO for your Everbridge login as soon as possible."
