Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield

The second-biggest health insurer in the country, Anthem, recently experienced a data breach that was examined by experts at the security company Check Point.

The first indications of the attack, according to statements made public by Anthem, appeared in the middle of last week when an IT administrator discovered a database query was being executed using his identifying code even though he had not started it.

After concluding that an attack had taken place, the corporation notified the FBI and engaged a third-party security consultant to conduct an investigation.

Investigators have revealed that Anthem's networks were breached and data was stolen using specially designed malware.

Although the precise malware type is unknown, it is said to be a variation of a well-known family of hacking tools.
