Hackers may have stolen the personal information of people who used a job search database in Alabama and nine other states.
The Alabama Department of Labor recently announced the breach of the America's JobLink, a multi-state web-based system linking jobseekers with employers. Alabamians who used the state's free, online jobs database joblink.alabama.gov may have had personal information exposed.
The site is developed and maintained by America's Job Link Alliance - Technical Support.
The company confirmed that earlier this week a breach occurred allowing a hacker or hackers to view the names, birthdates and social security numbers of jobseekers in the America's Job Link systems of Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, Delaware, Idaho, Illinois, Kansas, Maine, Oklahoma and Vermont.
The department says the hacker no longer has access into the system.
