August 8 – The American National Group, better known as American National Insurance Company (“ANICO”) data breach lawyers at Console & Associates, P.C are investigating the data breach that was reported after the company was targeted in a recent cyber security attack. The American National Insurance Company data breach resulted in the names, Social Security numbers, addresses, financial account information and medical information of certain individuals being compromised.
According to the Attorney General of Texas, American National Insurance Company reported a data breach after they were targeted in a recent cyber security attack. An article published in The Record on July 11, 2023, contains a quote from American National indicating that the company used the MOVEit file transfer software created by Progress Software. In this article, American National explains that on July 7, 2023, it became aware that the Cl0p ransomware group listed the company as a victim. At that time, American National was investigating Cl0p’s claims to determine their validity. Thus, it is possible that American National’s recent filing with the Texas Attorney General is referring to a MOVEit breach. However, this has not yet been confirmed by American National. The American National Insurance Company will send out data breach letters to those individuals whose information was affected by the breach.
