Capita

Customers of the UK outsourcing behemoth Capita are being informed that their data was taken in the hack that rocked the firm at the beginning of April 2023.

A cyber problem that primarily affected access to internal Microsoft Office 365 apps was reported by the company.

The company noted that while some services offered to specific clients were hampered by the attack, the vast majority of its client services were unaffected.

Threat actors obtained access to Capita systems that contained the personal information of almost 470,000 active, delayed, and retired members.
