The Northwestern Mutual Life Insurance Company

Newport Group, Inc. notified participants of a ransomware event affecting its third-party vendor, Infosys McCamish Systems (IMS), on November 2, 2023. The breach date is listed as October 29, 2023. IMS processes transactions for non-qualified deferred compensation plans. While IMS stated there is no evidence that participant information (name, address, date of birth, SSN) was impacted, Newport offered one year of complimentary identity protection through Experian as a precaution. Unit 42 and EY were engaged for security validation and e-discovery. The IMS environment was restored and hardened.
