If you attended a University Systems of Georgia (USG) institution, or are now enrolled, your personal data may be at risk.
According to USG, cyber criminals accessed files when they purchased the software program MOVEit, for transferring and storing sensitive data.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) determined that data was taken from the MOVEit platform by a cybercriminal group named CL0P.
The files and information obtained by this cybercriminal group will likely be published on its website.
The information involved:
Full or partial (last 4 digits) Social Security Number
Date of Birth
Bank account number(s)
Federal income tax documents with Tax ID number
USG mailed to involved persons about the breach and what those persons should do.
