March 11 – The Makai data breach lawyers at Console & Associates, P.C are investigating the data breach that was reported after the company was targeted in a recent cyber security attack. The Makai data breach resulted in the exposure of names and Social Security numbers of certain individuals being compromised.
According to the Massachusetts Attorney General’s website, Makai reported a data breach after they detected a potential security incident. The company identified the breach on January 28, 2025, when unauthorized access to confidential information was discovered.
While the full details of how the breach occurred remain limited at this time, Makai has confirmed that sensitive data in their possession was subject to unauthorized access. The investigation has not yet clarified whether the incident directly affected Makai’s own systems or if the breach occurred through one of their vendors or service providers.
The security incident potentially exposed sensitive personal identifiers of individuals whose information was stored in Makai’s databases. According to the breach notification, the compromised data includes names and Social Security numbers—information that presents risk for identity theft and fraud when in the wrong hands.
Following their investigation, Makai conducted a thorough review of the affected data to identify which specific individuals had their information exposed during the incident. The company worked to determine the scope of the breach and assess which particular data elements were accessible for each affected person.
On February 4, 2025, Makai sent out data breach letters to those individuals whose information was affected by the breach. These notifications provided details about the nature of the security incident and specified which personal information may have been compromised in each recipient’s case.
