Apollo Global Management Data Breach Exposes Social Security Numbers and Personal Data

Apollo Global Management disclosed a July 6–10 cloud intrusion via social engineering that may have exposed highly sensitive personal data (names, birth dates, home addresses, contact details, and Social Security numbers). The company reported no confirmed misuse to date, has notified law enforcement, engaged external cybersecurity and forensic specialists, is offering 24 months of complimentary credit monitoring, and the report urges stronger cloud identity protections (phishing-resistant MFA, least privilege, monitoring of account changes) to reduce future risk.
