January 7 – The Prudential Financial data breach lawyers at Console & Associates, P.C are investigating the data breach that was reported after the company discovered unauthorized access to annuity customer information. The Prudential Financial data breach resulted in the exposure of sensitive customer data, including names, addresses, dates of birth, partial Social Security numbers, annuity information, and account numbers.
According to the filing with the Massachusetts Attorney General’s office, Prudential Financial reported a data security incident affecting certain annuity customer information. Upon discovery, the company launched an investigation and identified the source of the unauthorized access. While Prudential has since corrected the issue that led to the breach, the investigation confirmed that customer data was compromised during the incident.
Recently, Prudential Financial sent out data breach letters to those individuals whose information was affected by the breach. These notifications detail the specific types of information that may have been compromised for each recipient.

The company maintains operations across 40 countries, providing life insurance, retirement services, and investment management products to both individual and institutional clients.
