Hack at Allianz Life impacts 1.1 million customers, breach notification site says
Aug 18, 2025 5:58 PM

Aug 18 (Reuters) - A cyberattack at U.S. insurance firm

Allianz Life in late July compromised the personal data of 1.1

million customers, according to breach notification site Have I

Been Pwned on Monday.

Allianz Life had previously said that hackers stole personal

information of most of its 1.4 million U.S. customers, financial

professionals and select employees.

According to the data published by Have I Been Pwned, the

hacked information includes names of customers, addresses, phone

numbers and emails.

An Allianz Life spokesperson declined to comment at the

moment, as the company's investigation is ongoing.

The spokesperson said the company will be providing

dedicated resources, including two years of identity monitoring

services, to assist impacted individuals.

The breach is part of a broader wave of high-profile

cyberattacks targeting global companies, including Microsoft ( MSFT )

and UnitedHealth Group ( UNH ).

A cyberattack on UnitedHealth's ( UNH ) technology division last

year - the largest healthcare data breach in U.S. history -

affected 192.7 million people.

Meanwhile, hackers infiltrated Microsoft's ( MSFT ) on-premises

SharePoint servers in July, hitting more than 100 organizations,

including U.S. government agencies, and raising concerns about

identity security.
