At Console & Associates, our data breach lawyers are closely examining the recent RRCA Accounts Management, Inc. (“RRCA”) data breach. This data breach was disclosed following a cyber security incident at RRCA Accounts Management, which may have affected an undetermined number of individuals, potentially exposing sensitive personal identifiable information.

 

What Happened?

According to reports filed with the Montana Attorney General's office, RRCA Accounts Management experienced a data breach when they became the target of a ransomware attack executed by a well known ransomware group. The attack occurred on June 6, 2024, but due to sophisticated concealment techniques employed by the attackers, RRCA didn't discover the breach until August 20, 2024. The compromised information includes:

  • Social Security numbers
  • Names and addresses
  • Birth dates
  • Driver's license numbers
  • Passport numbers
  • Phone numbers and email addresses
  • Health insurance details
  • Medical information

RRCA Accounts Management began sending data breach notification letters on October 23, 2024, to all individuals whose personal information was compromised during this security incident.
