Briefly

Jeremiah Fowler stated, "Once I started seeing invoices, it was pretty clear what the risks were here, including invoice fraud. Ninety-five percent of cyber-crime is financially based. At the end of the day, criminals want money. Who has money? Businesses." This illuminates the inherent risks associated with exposed business data, emphasizing the financial motivations behind cybercriminal activity.
Fowler's findings highlighted that the database belonged to ServiceBridge, utilized by various companies for managing customer work orders and invoices, indicating the broad impact of the data breach across multiple industries including pest control and maintenance.
He reported, "In the limited sampling of documents I analyzed, the majority appeared to be US-based, but I also saw businesses and customers from Canada, the UK, and numerous European countries." This underscores the global reach of the exposed sensitive data.
