According to the Attorney General of Montana, First Analysis reported a data breach after they were targeted in a recent cyber security attack. On August 9, 2024, First Analysis identified a potential breach in its computer network. The company took swift action to secure its systems and enlisted the help of external cybersecurity experts to investigate the incident. The investigation revealed that an unauthorized individual had gained access to the network between August 7, 2024, and August 9, 2024, compromising files containing confidential data.
First Analysis determined that the breach was likely due to a previously undisclosed vulnerability in a security device used by the company. Upon discovering that sensitive consumer information had been exposed, First Analysis undertook a thorough review of the affected files to assess the scope of the leak and identify the impacted consumers.
