VC giant Insight Partners warns thousands after ransomware breach www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/secu…

New York-based venture capital and private equity firm Insight Partners is notifying thousands of individuals whose personal information was stolen in a ransomware attack. The company disclosed the cybersecurity incident in February, when it said that a threat actor gained access to its network following a “sophisticated social engineering attack.”

Two months later, Insight Partners confirmed that the attackers had also stolen sensitive data during the breach, including banking and tax information, personal information of current and former employees, information related to limited partners, as well as fund, management company, and portfolio company information.

“Formal notification letters are being mailed to all individuals whose data was impacted, including complimentary credit or identity monitoring services. Please note that, if you have not received a notification letter by the end of September 2025, then we have determined your personal data was not impacted by the incident,” it said in a subsequent statement.
