Toronto-based Mackenzie Investments confirmed to CTV News Toronto on Wednesday that a third party vendor, InvestorCOM Inc., was compromised by a cyber security incident related to data transfer supplier GoAnywhere.
The account number, name, address and social insurance number of the Mackenzie client who received the letter last week were part of the data breach. Hackers took advantage of a zero-day vulnerability in GoAnywhere’s file transfer system and accessed customers’ data at the end of January, according to the company.
“After receiving notice from InvestorCOM, we took immediate steps to begin a full forensic investigation. Through our investigation, we recently discovered some personal information of current and some former investors was part of this incident,” a Mackenzie spokesperson said in a statement on Wednesday.
