At Console & Associates, our data breach lawyers are closely examining the recent WD & Associates, a division of Patriot Growth Insurance Services, LLC, data breach. This breach was disclosed following a cyber security incident, which may have affected an unknown number of individuals, potentially exposing sensitive personal information.
A recent report from the Attorney General of Massachusetts states that the WD & Associates was compromised due to a cyber security attack after the company detected suspicious activity in parts of its computer network. An investigation confirmed that an unauthorized party was able to access and potentially acquire confidential information stored on the company’s computer network between February 1, 2023 and February 9, 2023. Data breach letters were sent out by WD & Associates on May 24, 2024 informing affected individuals about the nature of the incident and compromised data.
Based in Providence, Rhode Island, WD & Associates is a healthcare consulting and insurance firm that offers a range of insurance products to both individual and business clients.
