Lowe Data Incident Settlement

What happened

In December 2024, Lowe Engineers' computer systems were targeted by a cyberattack, and files containing personal information may have been accessed. The lawsuit alleges that private information such as names, Social Security numbers, and financial or medical details was exposed. Lowe denies any wrongdoing, and the parties agreed to settle to avoid the costs and risks of continuing the litigation.
