In December 2021, Colorado-based mortgage servicing company Pingora Loan Servicing, LCC, and its child company Bayview Asset Management were involved in a cyber-attack when hackers accessed private files belonging to over 160,000 customers.
Despite being aware of the cyber-attack, Pingora took over a month to directly inform those whom they presumed to be affected by the breach.
Your sensitive information is important, and when you choose to authorize organizations to record and store your personal data, by law they are required to immediately notify those potentially affected by the data breach about their possible involvement and the type of sensitive details of theirs that might have been impacted.
