Attackers have compromised Anthem Inc., one of the larger health-care companies in the U.S. Anthem claims to have 69 million customers across its product lines. The scope of the information the attackers obtained could give them broad access to victims personal lives. It is yet unclear who is behind the attack, but if the group behind that compromised Anthem plans to sell that information on the black market, it means cybercriminals can buy access to the stolen data and use that information to drain your bank account, open new credit accounts and telephone accounts.
