Credit Monitoring Encouraged by SRA International After Data Breach
February 19, 2009
Maryland company SRA International, Inc.’s information technology services department recently discovered a virus on the company’s network. It is believed that this virus may have allowed one to compromise the data on their systems, which include the personnel data of current and former employees, such as names, contact information, health information and social security numbers.
At this point, the company is investigating the source of the virus and the information technology service team is working on removing the virus and increasing security on their systems. It does not appear as though any of the information has been misused, but SRA International, Inc. is contacting former and current employees to notify them of the possible security breach. They encourage those affected to monitor their credit for fraudulent or suspicious activity. You can compare credit monitoring services here.
