What happened?

The New Jersey Cybersecurity & Communications Integration Cell, which is a division of the New Jersey Office of Homeland Security & Preparedness, issued several memos warning of a nasty vulnerability discovered in the software that could allow an attacker to install programs; view, change, or delete data, and more.

How does this affect me?

If you use MOVEit software, it is possible that partners, vendors and distributors who interact with your organization’s team members do too. 

If you interact with a known partner, vendor or distributor of your organization who wants to share data with you using MOVEit software, then please contact us at Cyber Command, and we’ll work with the other entity to securely enable the large file transfer using another mechanism. 

What about when I need to share a file?

Always make sure not to ever permit file sharing outside your organization through any means other than the protocols determined by your IT department.
