IN: State unemployment accounts breached

Posted on January 8, 2009 by Dissent

According to the Indiana Department of Workforce Development, some 1000 Hoosiers’ accounts were compromised.

Marc Lotter with Workforce Development says, “The company that is contracted to handle the ATM portion of those cards, there was a security breach of some sort early last year.”

    I agree that this is the first report I can locate about this breach. Just one more example of how many breaches fly below radar.
