Patelco Credit Union suffered a ransomware attack that resulted in a significant data breach, affecting over 1 million people. Personal information, including names, Social Security numbers, driver’s license numbers, dates of birth, and email addresses, was compromised. Initially reported as affecting 726,000 individuals, further investigations increased this figure to 1,009,472. The incident prompted Patelco to offer free identity protection services for two years to those impacted. The breach not only threatened the privacy of customers but also exposed the credit union to potential financial and reputation damage.
