Convio has identified a security attack against their GetActive software systems that has resulted in constituent data for 92 clients being accessed by an unauthorized third-party. In other words, email addresses and member passwords were downloaded without authorization from 92 GetActive clients between Oct. 23 and Nov. 1. (Convio acquired GetActive in February 2007).
According to Convio, no credit card or other personal data was stolen. Convio is recommending that its clients notify any constituents with user-created passwords that might have been compromised. The company is also warning GetActive users to be alert for potential phishing emails that appear to be from nonprofits.
Convio has also posted information for affected individuals on its website.
