On August 27, 2022, a threat actor "prove" from BreachForums posted a data breach package targeting Chartered Insurance Institute, an insurance and financial planning company operating from London, United Kingdom. The threat actor noted that the data package includes around 57,000 rows of user information. From this package, ZeroFox extracted 57,542 email addresses. No passwords were found in this breach. Other notable data fields observed in this package include country, date of birth, name, address, and telephone number.

Recommendations
- If not already enabled, turn on the compromised credentials rule for all relevant entities and ensure relevant emails are entered for those entities, or reach out to [email protected] for assistance
- If one of your entities receives an alert, ZeroFox recommends immediate password changes for the affected account
- Enable 2-factor authentication for all of your organizational accounts to help mitigate phishing and credential stuffing attacks
