Case Study: an international nonprofit organization resolves a global data breach with Coalition Breach Response

International Nonprofit Organization covers $35,000 in breach costs with Coalition

An international nonprofit organization faced a significant data privacy challenge after a zero-day vulnerability in a third-party file-transfer tool led to a breach. The incident exposed sensitive donor information across multiple countries, raising concerns about legal and regulatory obligations. The nonprofit contacted Coalition for assistance, engaging its Breach Response coverage and Coalition Incident Response services.

Coalition launched a forensics investigation to review the extent of the event and established breach counsel in each impacted region. Their investigation determined the threat actor's activity was limited and found no evidence of lateral movement. After the nonprofit paid its $25,000 self-insured retention, its policy with Coalition covered more than $35,000 in costs related to the claim, including legal fees and the full forensic investigation.
