Frontier Communications Data Breach:
Lawsuit Investigation
Attorneys working with ClassAction.org are looking into whether a class action lawsuit can be filed in light of the Frontier Communications data breach.
As part of their investigation, they need to hear from individuals who received a notice stating they were impacted.
Frontier Communications Parent, Inc. experienced a cyber incident in which unauthorized access to some internal IT systems occurred. This breach was detected on April 14, 2024.
During an investigation, the telecommunications company discovered that the personal information of individuals had been compromised. According to the website for the Maine attorney general's office, the exposed data includes names or other personal identifiers, along with Social Security numbers.
Approximately 751,895 people were affected by the Frontier Communications data breach. The security incident was first reported in an April 18 Form 8-K filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission in which Frontier Communications noted that a cybercrime group was likely responsible. According to SecurityWeek.com, ransomware group RansomHub has claimed responsibility for the attack.
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 Frontier Communications to ensure it takes proper steps to protect the information it was entrusted with.
