Medibank has suffered another data breach. The Australian private health insurer suffered a major cyber-attack in October last year affecting 9.7 million customers. It was one of Australia’s worst data breach. This time its staff’s private details were impacted due to the exploit of the MOVEit vulnerability. Employees of Medibank had their names, work email addresses and phone numbers stolen. The compromise was through one of the company’s property and facilities management provider which was hit by the MOVEIt cyber-attack. Medibank has said that they are continuing to investigate and are working closely with the vendor. And at this stage they are not aware of any customer data being compromised.
