Nova Scotia Power, a major electricity provider in the Canadian province, suffered a cyberattack in March 2025, resulting in the theft of sensitive customer information. The stolen data included names, phone numbers, email addresses, mailing and service addresses, program participation information, dates of birth, customer account history, driver’s license numbers, Social Insurance Numbers, and in some cases, banking information. The attack did not disrupt physical operations, but the company is offering impacted customers a two-year subscription to a credit monitoring service. There is no evidence of data abuse, but customers are advised to be vigilant against unsolicited communications.
