As more businesses and medical providers transition to online operations, more security incidents by cybercriminals are occurring. When we share sensitive information with companies, we expect them to keep it safe and secure, as required by state and federal law.
Unfortunately, poor data privacy and security practices and protocols often leave organizations vulnerable to data breaches or unauthorized access of this information, putting your personally identifiable information at risk of exposure to unauthorized third parties or hackers.

How Serious Is a Data Breach?
A data breach can be an extremely serious matter, sometimes life-altering. The private, sensitive information that can be compromised or stolen includes:
- Social security numbers
- Date of birth
- Medical records, health insurance data, and biometric information
- Bank account and credit or debit card information
- Cell phone numbers, physical addresses, and email addresses
- Your driver’s license information, including your birthday/age, appearance descriptors, and your photo
- Your passport information, including your birthday/age, appearance descriptors, and your photo
- Location data such as where you live, stay, travel, shop, and when those movements occurred
- Your full name, previous names, and the names of your family members
In the wrong hands, each of these pieces of data can compromise your financial health leading to identity theft, financial fraud, and in violation of your right to privacy. These are serious legal issues that can be addressed with a data breach class action lawsuit.
