Approximately 109 million customer accounts were impacted, according to AT&T, which said it currently doesn’t believe the data is publicly available.
FILE – The AT&T logo is positioned above one of its retail stores in New York, Oct. 24, 2016. A security breach in 2022 compromised the data of nearly all of AT&T’s cellular customers, customers of mobile virtual network operators using AT&T’s wireless network, as well landline customers who interacted with those cellular numbers.
“The data does not contain the content of calls or texts, personal information such as Social Security numbers, dates of birth, or other personally identifiable information,” AT&T said Friday. AT&T identified the third-party platform as Snowflake and said that the incident was limited to an AT&T workspace on the cloud company’s platform and did not impact its network.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation said that it has worked collaboratively with AT&T and the Justice Department “through the first and second delay process, all while sharing key threat intelligence to bolster FBI investigative equities and to assist AT&T’s incident response work.” The Department of Justice said Friday that it became aware of the breach early this year, but that it met the security standard for a delayed filing by AT&T with the U.S. Securities & Exchange Commission, a filing that was made public Friday.
