Intruders used the credentials of some Bankers Life and Casualty Company employees to get into Bankers Life systems from May 30 through Sept. 30, the company announced last week.
The intruders may have obtained unauthorized access to the full Social Security numbers, driver's license numbers, bank account numbers, or medication, diagnosis or treatment plan information for "a limited group of individuals," the company said.
The intruders may also have obtained the personal information of a larger group of Bankers Life applicants and customers, including the consumers' names, addresses, dates of birth, insurance information, types of insurance, premiums, dates of service and claim amounts, and the last four digits of the consumers' Social Security numbers, the company said.
The intrusion has affected Bankers Life's Colonial Penn Medicare supplement insurance customers as well as other customers, the company said.
