Incident Overview

DISA Global Solutions, Inc was the subject of a data breach notification filed with the CA Attorney General. The AG filing was recorded on February 24, 2025. The breach or discovery date reported in the filing is February 9, 2024.

From the AG filing description

DISA Global Solutions, Inc operates as a prominent third-party provider specializing in employee screening, background checks, drug and alcohol testing, and compliance management services for corporate clients across various critical industries. Because of the nature of its operations, DISA acts as a massive repository for highly sensitive personal and professional records. Corporations rely on DISA to collect, process, and store extensive dossiers on prospective and current employees to facilitate hiring decisions and workplace safety programs. This business model requires the accumulation of vast amounts of confidential consumer data, making the company an extremely lucrative target for malicious cyber actors seeking to harvest high-value personal information in bulk. In 2025, DISA Global Solutions, Inc reported a significant cybersecurity incident to the California Attorney General, prompting widespread concern among individuals whose data was entrusted to the firm. While the precise mechanics of the breach continue to be investigated, incidents affecting background screening and compliance platforms typically involve unauthorized network access, exploitation of system vulnerabilities, or the compromise of third-party vendor infrastructure. In many comparable data security failures, cybercriminals manage to bypass perimeter defenses, infiltrate central databases containing applicant and employee files, and exfiltrate large archives of unencrypted or inadequately secured data before detection occurs. The data exposed in this breach reportedly includes a comprehensive suite of personal identifiers and background details, creating severe, long-term risks for affected individuals. When information such as Social Security numbers, full names, dates of birth, and home addresses are compromised, victims face an immediate and elevated threat of identity theft and financial fraud. Furthermore, because DISA handles compliance records, drug testing results, and employment history, the exposure of these specialized datasets can lead to professional harm, targeted phishing schemes, and unauthorized attempts to open lines of credit or secure employment using stolen credentials. This breadth of exposed information leaves victims vulnerable across multiple facets of their personal and financial lives. As a commercial entity entrusted with sensitive consumer information, DISA Global Solutions, Inc was bound by robust legal and regulatory obligations to secure its digital infrastructure under state data protection statutes, such as the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), as well as common law duties of care. These legal frameworks mandate that companies handling personally identifiable information implement reasonable and appropriate security measures, including data encryption, regular vulnerability assessments, and strict access controls. The occurrence of a widespread data breach strongly suggests a potential failure in these mandated security practices, raising serious questions about whether DISA adequately protected the confidential data entrusted to its care. Receiving an official data breach notification letter from DISA Global Solutions, Inc serves as formal legal acknowledgment that your personal information was compromised due to inadequate corporate security. Under current legal standards, the receipt of such a notification establishes the concrete legal standing necessary to participate in a class action lawsuit, and victims are not required to demonstrate actual financial loss or identity theft to seek legal recourse. Our firm is currently investigating potential claims on behalf of affected individuals. We handle these data breach cases on a strict contingency fee basis, meaning you pay nothing out of pocket, and there are no legal fees unless we successfully recover compensation on your behalf.

Rights Under the Law

Common categories of compensation in data breach class actions

Lost Time & Remediation Costs

The hours spent responding to a data breach — canceling accounts, contacting credit bureaus, updating passwords, and investigating fraud — represent compensable economic harm in data breach litigation.

Identity Theft Protection Costs

Once your SSN is exposed, protection becomes an ongoing expense. Plaintiffs in data breach settlements have recovered costs for credit freezes, identity protection subscriptions, and time spent dealing with fraudulent accounts — sometimes covering multiple years of exposure.

Emotional Distress

Data breach victims regularly report anxiety, loss of sleep, and ongoing fear of identity theft. These non-economic harms are cognizable injuries in data breach litigation, particularly in cases involving SSN or medical record exposure.

Note: an attorney general breach filing does not by itself establish a settlement fund, a payment amount, or a claim deadline. If an official settlement notice is later issued, rely on that notice for payment details and deadlines.

Applicable State Law

This breach was reported under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), which mandates notification and establishes your right to seek damages.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need proof that my data was misused to file a claim against DISA Global Solutions, Inc?

No. Under California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and federal law, the unauthorized exposure of your personal data — regardless of whether it has been actively misused — can be sufficient grounds for a claim. The breach itself is the injury.

How much does filing a claim cost?

Nothing. The Law Office of David S. Harris handles data breach cases on contingency — you pay zero upfront and owe nothing unless compensation is recovered.

My Social Security Number was exposed. What should I do right now?

Immediately place a free credit freeze at all three bureaus (Equifax, Experian, TransUnion). A freeze blocks new accounts from being opened in your name. Then file a complaint with the FTC at IdentityTheft.gov and contact our office — SSN exposure is one of the most serious breach types.

Is it too late to file a claim?

Statutes of limitations for data breach claims vary by state but typically run 2–4 years. Depending on when you learned of the breach, you may still have time. Contact our office for a free eligibility review — there is no cost to find out.

What if DISA Global Solutions, Inc offered me free credit monitoring after the breach?

Accepting free credit monitoring from DISA Global Solutions, Inc does not waive your right to pursue legal action unless you signed a specific release waiving claims. In most cases, victims who accepted monitoring can still file.

Do I need to have received a notice letter to be eligible?

Not necessarily. Many data breach victims are never notified directly. If your personal information was held by DISA Global Solutions, Inc during the relevant period, you may still qualify even without receiving a letter. A free eligibility review can confirm your status.

How long does a data breach class action lawsuit take?

Most data breach class actions resolve within 18 to 36 months, though timelines vary by court and complexity. Your participation requires minimal effort — typically completing a claim form. Our office handles all litigation; you are notified when a settlement is reached.
