Figure Technology, a blockchain-based lending company, confirmed it experienced a data breach.<\/p>\n

On Friday, Figure spokesperson Alethea Jadick told TechCrunch in a statement that the breach originated when an employee was tricked with a social engineering attack that allowed the hackers to steal “a limited number of files.”<\/p>\n

The statement said the company is communicating “with partners and those impacted,” and offering free credit monitoring “to all individuals who receive a notice.”<\/p>\n

Figure’s spokesperson did not respond to a series of specific questions about the breach. <\/p>\n

The hacking group ShinyHunters took responsibility for the hack on its official dark web leak website, saying the company refused to pay a ransom, and published 2.5 gigabytes of allegedly stolen data. <\/p>\n

TechCrunch saw a portion of the data, which included customers’ full names, home addresses, dates of birth, and phone numbers. <\/p>\n

A member of ShinyHunters told TechCrunch that Figure was among the victims of a hacking campaign that targeted customers who rely on the single sign-on provider Okta. Other victims of the campaign include Harvard University and the University of Pennsylvania (UPenn). <\/p>\n
