Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center Data Breach:
Lawsuit Investigation
Attorneys working with ClassAction.org are looking into whether a class action lawsuit can be filed in light of the Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center data breach.
As part of their investigation, they need to hear from individuals who received a notice stating they were impacted.
In a significant data breach, Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center and Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center El Paso discovered unauthorized access to their network, affecting the personal information of hundreds of thousands of individuals. The cybersecurity incident occurred between September 17 and September 29, 2024, leading to a temporary disruption of certain computer systems and the potential unauthorized access to or removal of sensitive files.
The data compromised in the Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center data breach may include a range of personal information, such as names, birth dates, addresses, Social Security numbers, driver's license or government IDs, financial details, and medical information, including health insurance data, diagnoses, and treatment information.
The Health Sciences Centers, two health-related universities that are part of the Texas Tech University system, are now in the process of informing the individuals affected by this breach.
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 Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center to ensure it takes proper steps to protect the information it was entrusted with.
