400M Records Stolen in 2023 State Farm Data Breach, Class Action Lawsuit Says
State Farm faces a proposed class action lawsuit after 400 million records were reportedly accessed and stolen by hackers during an August 2023 data breach.
The 33-page lawsuit alleges State Farm lacked adequate systems and procedures to properly safeguard consumers’ highly sensitive personal data, allowing hackers to use ransomware to steal roughly 400 million records from the insurer’s systems around August 28 of this year. The filing contends that the incident could have been prevented had State Farm properly vetted and monitored its systems.
