On January 10, 2022, the Minnesota Statewide Limited Energy J.A.T.C. disclosed a data breach that occurred on September 15, 2021, involving unauthorized access to its computer systems. The incident exposed sensitive personal information, including individuals' names and other confidential data, though the exact number of affected individuals remains undisclosed. The breach did not specify whether financial records, government-issued identifiers, or other high-risk data were compromised beyond names and sensitive details.
