Have I Been Pwned Flags Prosper Breach Affecting 17.6M

🔐Prosper, a peer-to-peer lending marketplace, disclosed a security incident detected on September 2 that resulted in unauthorized access to company databases and the theft of customer and applicant data. While Prosper says it has found no evidence that attackers accessed customer accounts or funds, investigators report that Social Security numbers and other sensitive fields may have been exposed. Breach notification service Have I Been Pwned published that 17.6 million unique email addresses were impacted, though Prosper says it cannot yet validate that figure and is still determining which data elements were affected. The company has notified authorities and says it will offer free credit monitoring as appropriate.
