GENWORTH FINANCIAL INC FILES (8-K) Disclosing Other Events

Item 8.01 Other Events.

Genworth Financial, Inc. (the "Company") has been notified by PBI Research
Services ("PBI"), a third-party vendor to the Company, that PBI, in common with
numerous other organizations and governmental agencies, was subject to the
widely reported security events involving the MOVEit file transfer system, which
PBI uses in the performance of its services. The MOVEit file transfer system
security event resulted in the unauthorized acquisition by a third-party of data
from several organizations and governmental agencies, including Company data. As
further described below, the Company believes that the personal information of a
significant number of insurance policyholders or other customers of its life
insurance businesses was unlawfully accessed, and is working to ensure that
protection services are provided to those impacted individuals. The Company
believes that the PBI security event has not had any impact on any of the
Company's information systems, including its financial systems, and that there
has not been any material interruption of the Company's business operations. The
Company's Enact mortgage insurance business was not affected by the incident.
While the Company is continuing to measure the impact, including certain
remediation expenses and other potential liabilities, the Company does not
currently believe this incident will have a material adverse effect on its
business, operations, or financial results.

PBI is a third-party vendor that provides services to various companies in the
insurance industry. The Company's life insurance businesses use PBI to, among
other things, satisfy applicable regulatory obligations to search various
databases to identify the deaths of insured persons under life insurance
policies, and to identify the deaths of insured persons under long-term care
insurance, and annuity policies which can impact premium payment obligations and
benefit eligibility. For life insurance policies and annuity contracts, this
helps identify the possible eligibility of beneficiaries for death benefits even
prior to the submission of claims, or for policies that beneficiaries may not
know exist.

Since receiving notification of the security event, the Company, together with
PBI, promptly launched an investigation to determine to what extent personal
information had been unlawfully accessed by the threat actor. While that
investigation is still ongoing, it is the Company's understanding, based on the
current state of the investigation that approximately 2.5-2.7 million
policyholders' or other customers' personal information, including social
security numbers, was exposed to and obtained by the threat actor as a result of
the PBI security event.

The Company will ensure that appropriate notification is provided to individuals
affected by this security event, as well as to regulatory agencies as required
by federal and state law. In addition, impacted individuals will be offered
credit monitoring and identity theft protection services. Additional information
and contact information can be found at www.genworth.com/moveit.

With respect to any impact on the Company, the Company does not itself use the
MOVEit file transfer system, and PBI has informed the Company that it has
rectified the vulnerability that allowed the incident.
