Ciuni & Panichi, Inc., an accounting firm, has notified individuals that an employee email account was accessed without authorization. The company says it discovered the unusual activity on November 3, 2024, and moved quickly to lock down the account and bring in outside forensic investigators. That review, finished on January 21, 2025, concluded that a limited set of files in the mailbox may have been viewed by whoever gained access — a pattern consistent with a hacking or system intrusion rather than an inside job. Because Ciuni & Panichi provides accounting services to another business, the information involved belongs to that client’s customers or contacts, not to Ciuni & Panichi’s own staff.
