Capita is telling pension customers that some data contained within its systems was potentially accessed when criminals broke into the outsourcing giant’s tech infrastructure earlier this year.<\/p>\n

The business admitted to a “cyber incident” \u2013 that nebulous phrase which downplays the significance of an attack \u2013 in March<\/a>, when miscreants spent nine days inside the company’s systems.<\/p>\n

As part of the ongoing investigation, Capita said in April around 4 percent of its servers were accessed<\/a> by the intruder and some customers, colleagues and suppliers’ data was lifted. Russian extortionist crew Black Basta claimed responsibility<\/a>, saying it had floated some of the stolen data for sale, including Capita documents marked confidential, passport scans, bank account details and more.<\/p>\n
