Asurion

Asurion suffered from a data breach incident which disclosed private info of 1000 employees and more than a million customers.

The company confirmed the breach but said it believes the suspect took less information than he claimed.

The hacker has more than 100 terabytes of Asurion's sensitive data including thousands of employee's social security numbers and banking information and over a million customer's names, addresses, phone numbers and account numbers.

It was found that the corporation paid at least $300,000 in ransom to an extortionist who claimed he stole the private information.
