Risk Strategies Data Breach Investigation

Risk Strategies identified a data security incident involving unauthorized access to internal systems that contained personal information. After discovering the incident, the company launched an investigation with cybersecurity professionals to determine the scope of the breach and identify what data may have been affected.

The investigation included a review of impacted files and systems to determine which categories of personal information were present. Based on the results of that review, the company determined that sensitive identifiers, including Social Security numbers and insurance-related information, were present in the affected environment.

At this time, Risk Strategies has not publicly disclosed the specific method of intrusion, such as whether the incident involved phishing, credential compromise, malware, or another form of cyberattack. It also has not confirmed whether any data was exfiltrated, published, or misused. However, notifications were issued out of an abundance of caution due to the nature of the information involved.

Following the investigation, the company implemented additional security measures intended to strengthen system protections and reduce the risk of similar incidents in the future. Affected individuals were also offered credit monitoring and identity protection services through a third-party provider at no cost.
