An investigation at US truck maker Navistar has revealed that a data breach on its systems exposed employee healthcare information.
Navistar hired external cybersecurity experts and began an investigation after learning of a security incident on May 20. By the end of May, the firm had confirmed that an “unauthorized third party had accessed and taken certain data from Navistar’s IT systems”.
The potentially compromised data included the full names, addresses, dates of birth, and Social Security numbers of an unspecified number of Navistar employees past and present, according to an updated statement by Navistar on the breach.
