What Caused the MOVEit / Radius Global Solutions Breach?

The Radius Global Solutions data breach was only recently announced, and more information is expected in the near future. However, Radius’s filing with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Office for Civil Rights provides some important information on what led up to the breach. Radius also posted a “Notice of MOVEit Data Event” on its website.

According to these sources, on June 1, 2023, Radius learned that MOVEit, a secure file transfer application used by the company, contained a critical vulnerability allowing hackers to access MOVEit servers. Upon learning of the vulnerability, Radius investigated its MOVEit server to determine whether an unauthorized party had accessed any confidential documents. Radius confirmed that certain documents were accessed and that these documents contained sensitive information.

After learning that sensitive consumer data was accessible to an unauthorized party, Radius Global Solutions reviewed the compromised files to determine what information was leaked and which consumers were impacted. While the breached information varies depending on the individual, it may include your name, date of birth, Social Security number, patient treatment code, treatment location, and treatment payment history (including health insurance provider).

On August 4, 2023, Radius Global Solutions sent out data breach letters to anyone who was affected by the recent data security incident. These letters should provide victims with a list of what information belonging to them was compromised.
