The Idaho Department of Fish and Game has suspended online sales of hunting and fishing licenses and tags after a computer breach that potentially included personal information being accessed, according to a Friday press release.
According to the Associated Press, Fish and Game spokesman Mike Keckler said the agency is working with a third-party online sales vendor, Active Network, a Texas-based company, to determine if hackers acquired personal information.
“At this point, we still do not know what Idaho data was breached,” Keckler told the Associated Press. “All we know is that somebody was able to hack into our vendor’s system, and this vendor services more than just Idaho.”
Idaho Fish and Game has not stated how many people could have had their personal information compromised because of the breach. Apparently, the data breach occurred sometime this summer, according to the Fish and Game release. Those who purchased hunting and fishing licenses and tags online prior to 2008 are potentially at risk. For the full article click here
