Why This Breach Matters
Government agencies and municipalities maintain official records that include Social Security numbers, tax identification numbers, benefits data, and in many cases medical and criminal history records. A breach of a government database can expose data that is particularly difficult to remediate because official records are harder to dispute or correct than commercial accounts.
California residents are protected by Cal. Civ. Code § 1798.29, which gives you the right to pursue legal remedies when a company fails to adequately protect your data.
