National Public Data (NPD), a Coral Springs, Florida-based company, has confirmed that cybercriminals successfully breached its servers, stealing the Social Security numbers and other sensitive information of nearly EVERY American, the New York Post reported.

Jerico Pictures Inc., operating as National Public Data, released a statement last week acknowledging the massive data breach. The company confirmed that the stolen data included names, email addresses, phone numbers, Social Security numbers, and mailing addresses.

The breach, which occurred in late December 2023, is believed to have exposed sensitive data through subsequent leaks in April and the summer of 2024.

NPD attributed the breach to a “third-party bad actor” and described the incident as a “data security incident” in its official statement on its website.
