The stolen information included home addresses, Social Security numbers, family details and sensitive job assignments.
The breach reportedly resulted from an Accenture contractor’s failure to install a security patch on a third-party platform.
ShinyHunters, which threatened to leak the stolen data, has allegedly breached more than 140 organizations and extorted $70 million since last year.
