US consumer data was compromised in an alleged cyberattack on Bureau van Dijk by threat actor USDoD. The attack, claimed to be the threat actor’s last, was bid farewell to the BreachForums community. Bureau van Dijk, a leading business intelligence firm owned by Moody’s Analytics, maintains country-specific databases focused on sales, marketing, and customer support, with a primary focus on the US consumer database. The stolen data included sensitive information such as names, email addresses, phone numbers, job titles, and addresses, totaling approximately 11.7 million lines. The threat actor, USDoD, shared the stolen databases freely, with previous attacks on Thales and Airbus.
