Kansas House of Representatives, the lower house of the legislature of the U.S. state of Kansas, in which 244 email addresses were leaked, which were subsequently shared on a deep web platform. No passwords were found in this breach. Other notable data fields observed in this package include full names, job title, phone numbers, and physical addresses.

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 multi-factor authentication for all of your organizational accounts to help mitigate phishing and credential stuffing attacks
