Brighthouse Life Insurance Company Data Breach:
Lawsuit Investigation
Attorneys working with ClassAction.org are looking into whether a class action lawsuit can be filed in light of the Brighthouse Life Insurance Company data breach.
As part of their investigation, they need to hear from individuals who received a notice stating they were impacted.
Brighthouse Life Insurance Company is notifying individuals of a data breach incident during which a file containing sensitive personal information of its clients was improperly accessed due to a system defect by DXC Technology Company, one of the company's administrators. Between June 28, 2023 and July 3, 2023, DXC disclosed the file to unauthorized third party Education Benefit Consultants, LLC, also known as Aviben. Subsequently, Aviben suffered a data security incident on February 22, 2024, potentially allowing an unauthorized individual to view the Brighthouse file.
The data compromised in the Brighthouse Life Insurance Company data breach includes names, dates of birth, Social Security numbers, and annuity contract numbers of the affected individuals, who are being mailed notice of the incident.
If your information was exposed in the breach, attorneys want to hear from you. You may be able to start a class action lawsuit to recover compensation for loss of privacy, time spent dealing with the breach, out-of-pocket costs, and more.
A successful case could also force Brighthouse Life Insurance Company to ensure it takes proper steps to protect the information it was entrusted with.
