AultCare Data Breach Class Action Investigation

At Console & Associates, our data breach lawyers are closely examining the recent AultCare data breach. This data breach was disclosed following a cyber security incident at AultCare, which exposed sensitive personal identifiable information including names, addresses, dates of birth, and Social Security numbers of individuals enrolled in employer-sponsored health plans.

What Happened?

A recent report from the Massachusetts Attorney General's office states that the AultCare data breach occurred due to unauthorized access to an employee's email and SharePoint accounts. The company detected suspicious activity on September 25, 2024, and initiated security measures and launched an investigation. Through this investigation, AultCare discovered that an unauthorized party had accessed confidential information stored within these compromised accounts. The types of data exposed in this breach include:

• Full names
• Addresses
• Dates of birth
• Social Security numbers

Data breach letters were sent out by AultCare on February 10, 2025, informing affected individuals about the nature of the incident and their specific compromised data.

Steps To Take If You Were Affected By A Data Breach

1. Monitor all accounts and credit reports closely
   1. Set up alerts for suspicious activity
   2. Review all financial statements thoroughly
   3. Request free credit reports and examine them for unauthorized entries
      
      
2. Consider freezing your credit
   1. Contact all three major credit bureaus to place a freeze
   2. Understand this prevents new accounts from being opened in your name
   3. Remember to temporarily lift the freeze when applying for legitimate credit
      
      
3. Look out for phishing attempts using information from the AultCare data breach
   1. Be wary of unexpected emails or messages claiming to be from AultCare
   2. Don't click on suspicious links or download unexpected attachments
   3. Verify all communications through official channels
      
      
4. Change passwords for affected accounts
   1. Create strong, unique passwords for each account
   2. Use a combination of letters, numbers, and special characters
   3. Consider using a password manager for better security
      
      
5. Enable two-factor authentication where possible
   1. Add this extra layer of security to all important accounts
   2. Use authenticator apps rather than SMS when available
   3. Keep backup codes in a secure location
