NOTICE OF DATA SECURITY EVENT
What Happened?
On January 23, 2026, we discovered suspicious activity involving unauthorized access to, and potential acquisition of, personal information. This occurred between December 22, 2025 and January 15, 2026. This included Navia records going back seven years (to 2018), affecting almost 27,000 current and former PEBB members, about 5,600 current and former SEBB members, and almost 3,000 current and former participants in the Compact of Free Association (COFA) Islander program. Impacts may also include some PEBB and SEBB members who never enrolled in a Flexible Spending Arrangement (FSA) or Dependent Care Assistance Program (DCAP) because of eligibility data exchanges that allow members to elect these benefits during the annual open enrollment.
What Information Was Involved?
Accessed personal information included:
- Navia ID numbers
- First and last names
- Social Security numbers (PEBB and SEBB members only)
- Dates of birth
- Physical addresses
Additional data may also include phone numbers, email addresses, enrollment start and end dates, and employee IDs.
The incident involved unauthorized read-only access and potential acquisition of data, which didn’t allow the unauthorized user to create or delete data. We found no evidence of system intrusion, data changes, fund transfers, or access to claims or bank account information.
What We Are Doing
The privacy and security of personal information is among our highest priorities. When the suspicious activity was discovered, we promptly began an investigation into the nature and scope of this incident. We identified and corrected the vulnerability in our system that was used to access the data.
While we have measures in place to protect information, we also hired external forensic specialists to review our policies and procedures related to the storage and access of personal information to help prevent similar events in the future. We notified federal law enforcement, and will notify other U.S. regulatory authorities as required.
For More Information
Affected current and former PEBB and SEBB members and COFA Islander members should get a letter in the coming weeks with more details about the incident, including which of their data elements were impacted. The letter will also include information on how they can protect and monitor their credit.
