Employee benefits platform Paylogix says hackers stole financial and health data

Hackers stole troves of sensitive information on tens of thousands of people from Paylogix, a tech company that provides benefits management tools to employers and insurance firms.

The company has notified several state regulators this month and published its own notice of a security incident explaining that it experienced a cyberattack in the fall that disrupted its systems. 

An investigation revealed that hackers stole files from the company’s network between November 13 and November 18. Paylogix did not identify the hackers, but the company was added to the leak site of the Akira ransomware gang in January. 

The cybercriminals stole Social Security numbers, electronic signatures, financial account information, health insurance information, medical data, passport numbers, taxpayer IDs and other information. 

Federal law enforcement was notified of the incident and Paylogix said it is cooperating with an investigation.

Paylogix is a third-party administrator that helps companies manage employee benefits, payroll and insurance administration. It serves as a clearinghouse for many of the tasks handled by company administrators, including the complicated processes around benefit deductions and more.
