SelmanCo Data Breach Investigation

At Console & Associates, our data breach lawyers are closely examining the recent Selman & Company (“SelmanCo”) data breach. This data breach was disclosed following a cyber security incident at PAS-SG d/b/a PAS Hosting (“PAS”), which may have affected an undetermined number of individuals, potentially exposing sensitive personal identifiable information.

What Happened?

A recent report from the Massachusetts Attorney General's Office states that the SelmanCo data breach occurred due to unauthorized network access at their service provider, PAS Hosting. On August 15, 2024, PAS discovered that an unauthorized third party had accessed and potentially acquired files containing confidential information from their computer network.

After conducting their investigation, PAS informed SelmanCo of the breach's impact on September 13, 2024. While specific details about the types of compromised data vary by individual, affected persons will receive personalized notifications detailing their exposed information.
