Immer mehr betroffene Pensionskassen: Die Daten von über 100 000 Versicherten könnten nun bei Cyberkriminellen sein
Die Affäre um den Cyberangriff auf die Softwarefirma PK Softech weitet sich aus. Neben der Publica, der Pensionskasse des Bundes, dürften auch der Pensionskassendienstleister Libera sowie andere Pensionskassen von einem Datendiebstahl betroffen sein.
Die Cyberattack on software company PK Softech is expanding, affecting over 100,000 pension fund members and their data. Apart from Publica, the federal pension fund, other pension funds including Libera, a pension services provider, and entities such as Migros, Post, Zurich City, and Syngenta may have been compromised. The attack on PKS occurred in late September, potentially exposing sensitive information like addresses, contact data, AHV IDs, pension fund balances, wages, marriage-related data, and bank account numbers.
Libera, a leading pension services firm, confirmed that it too suffered from the breach, with PKS informing them of data loss on October 14. BPK, a Bern-based pension fund, also revealed that personal data of their policyholders were leaked during the cyberattack, though they couldn't specify which clients were affected. The situation highlights the need for pension funds to prioritize data security when partnering with third-party software providers.
