Rain Bird Corporation Reports Data Breach Affecting 24,862 U.S. Customers
On December 11, 2025, Rain Bird Corporation, a global leader in irrigation products and services, disclosed a data breach impacting its online web store. The incident exposed payment card details for 24,862 individuals in the U.S., including 40 residents of Maine.
The breach was first detected on July 25, 2025, after Rain Bird identified suspicious activity within its web store systems. A subsequent investigation, conducted with third-party cybersecurity experts, revealed that unauthorized actors had accessed payment card information used in transactions between February 11 and September 5, 2025. The compromised data included names, credit card numbers, CVV codes, and associated access codes.
Rain Bird completed its review of the affected data in December and began notifying impacted individuals by mail. On December 10, 2025, the company filed breach notifications with the Attorney Generals’ offices in California, Maine, and Vermont.
In response, Rain Bird secured its systems, engaged external cybersecurity specialists to assess the breach’s scope, and notified regulators and credit reporting agencies. To assist affected customers, the company is offering 12 months of complimentary credit monitoring and identity restoration services through Cyberscout, a TransUnion subsidiary. A dedicated call center (833-971-2302) has been established for inquiries.
