We are writing to inform you of a targeted cyber incident that occurred at Cape Finance on 5 January 2023 which could have resulted in some of your personal information being accessed by an unauthorised third party.
Upon discovery of the unauthorised activity, we immediately took steps to prevent further access and have conducted a full security review to identify whether any additional security measures could be introduced.
Following a detailed investigation, it has been discovered the unauthorised party went to extraordinary lengths to contravene the security measures put in place by a major third-party service provider which, in turn, enabled them to gain limited access to our records.
Following a review of our systems, it has been confirmed that for the short period in which they had access, the unauthorised party had the ability to access client data comprising of the following categories:
· Contact information
· Financial information
· Government-issued identity document information
As a result we have decided to notify all of our clients in writing that this issue has occurred.
