Vilas County

The social security numbers and other personal information about 85 jail inmates of Vilas County Jail were compromised in a data breach after a new corrections employee posted the wrong report on the county’s website.

The exposed information included the Social Security numbers and other personal information, so the Vilas County offered one year free monitoring serice to affected inmates.

The corrective actions are taken against the employee after the incident.
