Investigation notes

The compromised data includes highly sensitive identifiers such as Full Name, Social Security Number, Date of Birth, Wage and Compensation Information, Tax Return Information, Direct Deposit Account Details, Mailing Address, and Driver's License Number. This combination of data types provides malicious actors with critical components for identity theft, financial fraud, and other personal security threats.
