Minneapolis, Minnesota-based Allianz Life Insurance Company of North America suffered a cyberattack in mid-July affecting 1.4 million of its U.S. customers.
The insurance giant discovered the breach July 17 and the company said it occurred July 16 when a “malicious threat actor” accessed a third-party cloud-based system used by the company.
The compromised data includes personally identifiable information belonging to Allianz Life customers, financial professionals, and select employees. While the full extent of the stolen data was not immediately available, the company said a majority of its U.S. customers ended up affected in the hack.
