Anthem members and plan sponsors have received multiple communications regarding a recent cyber attack that compromised the personal information of many members. Anthem has been working with the FBI to understand the impact to their members and create proper security protocol.
Affected members will receive communications from Anthem and will have access to Identity Theft Protection services for 2 years, free of charge. Affected members will receive a letter with instructions on how to activate the Identity Theft Protection Services.
Services for Bestefits clients:
There is no question that cyber threats are an increasing concern. Breaches such as those at Anthem, Sony, Ebay, JP Morgan Chase and more, leave our health, financial and other personal information at risk. Identity Theft Protection Services and Cyber Security have become new ‘must have’s’ for those of us who conduct many transactions online and whose employers house employee information on the cloud or other software as a service technology tools. Bestefits will be sending an email to clients in the coming weeks to share group and individual Identity Theft Service options.
