Hundreds of thousands of Americans are now at risk for identity theft and fraud following a major cybersecurity breach involving a risk management firm. Georgia-based LexisNexis Risk Solutions (LNRS) says 364,333 customers are affected, according to a new filing with the Office of the Maine Attorney General. The firm says an unknown attacker breached the systems of a third-party platform that LexisNexis uses, exposing various customer data, including names, addresses, phone numbers, email addresses, postal details, Social Security numbers and driver’s license numbers. “On April 1st, 2025, we learned that on December 25th, 2024, an unauthorized third party acquired certain LNRS data from a third-party platform used for software development. The issue did not affect LNRS’s own networks or systems.” LexisNexis is a global data and analytics firm that helps companies manage risks, enhance compliance, prevent fraud and improve operational efficiency. The firm says it promptly sent letters to affected customers to provide more information on the security incident while offering free credit monitoring and identity protection services for 24 months. For now, LexisNexis says it is taking steps to review and revamp its security protocols to avoid a potential repeat of the incident. The firm is also urging customers to be on the lookout for any suspicious activity that may indicate fraud or identity theft.
