We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.

"The Post’s investigation into the incident concluded on October 27 and revealed that the following types of data belonging to 9,720 employees and contractors had been compromised:

  • Full names
  • Bank account numbers and routing numbers
  • Social Security numbers (SSNs)
  • Tax and ID numbers
Impacted individuals received a 12-month free-of-charge identity protection service coverage through IDX and are recommended to consider placing a security freeze on their credit file and setting up fraud alerts on their report.

In June, the Washington Post announced that the email accounts of several of its journalists had been compromised in a cyberattack conducted by foreign state actors.

While the two incidents occurred shortly after one another, there is evidence of a connection between them.

BleepingComputer has contacted The Washington Post with additional questions, and we will update this post when we receive a reply."
