Pennsylvania's Attorney General's Office is warning residents about a data breach that occurred in August, potentially exposing personal information including social security numbers. The cyber incident took down the office's website, email, and phone systems on August 9. While hackers may have accessed sensitive data, officials say there's no evidence the information has been misused yet.
Affected residents were notified Friday and offered identity protection services. The breach comes just weeks after Pennsylvania experienced a statewide 911 outage in July, though that incident was caused by technical issues, not a cyberattack.
