# AT&T Data Breach Settlement

AT&T Inc. settled allegations that class members' data elements were exposed in the two data incidents AT&T announced on March 30, 2024 and July 12, 2024. AT&T Inc. denies any wrongdoing and the court made no finding of liability.

A settlement resolving lawsuits over two data incidents AT&T announced in 2024 — one on March 30, 2024, and a second on July 12, 2024 involving data downloaded from an AT&T workspace on a third-party cloud platform. The claim filing deadline has passed and claim forms are no longer available.
