Profile
Utah Food Bank is a nonprofit organization that collects, stores, and distributes food to people facing hunger in Utah. It receives contributions from donors through various channels, including an online donation system hosted on its website. Its headquarters is located in the United States of America. The organization works with partner agencies to deliver food to individuals and families in need. Its primary activity centers on food acquisition and distribution to address food insecurity.
In October 2013, the Utah Food Bank experienced a security breach that exposed personal and financial information of more than 10,000 donors who had used its website donation system. The compromised data included names, addresses, email addresses, payment card numbers, security codes, and expiration dates, and the unauthorized access had persisted for an extended period before being discovered and addressed. This incident highlighted the organization's reliance on digital platforms for fundraising and underscored the need for strong cybersecurity safeguards for donor information. After the breach was discovered, the Utah Food Bank took steps to address the intrusion. The Utah Food Bank continues to operate its food distribution services following the breach.
