Conduent Vendor Breach Swells Past 25 Million People After New State Disclosures
Because Conduent operates behind agencies and employers, many people learned their data was exposed despite no direct relationship.
Overview
- Fresh filings place the toll at more than 25 million people nationwide, with about 15.4 million in Texas and roughly 10.5 million in Oregon.
- Conduent says an unauthorized party accessed its systems from October 21, 2024 to January 13, 2025 and obtained files tied to services it provides for clients.
- The company reports exposed data may include names, Social Security numbers, medical details, and health insurance information, though not every element for every person.
- The SafePay ransomware group has claimed the attack, and reporting cites roughly 8 TB of data exfiltrated during the months‑long intrusion.
- Conduent says it secured its network, notified law enforcement, and is sending letters and operating a helpline at 855‑291‑2605, while Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton labeled it likely the largest U.S. breach and signaled scrutiny.
