Marquis Software Solutions, Inc. was the subject of a data breach notification filed with the SC Attorney General. The AG filing was recorded on November 30, 2025.
From the AG filing description
Marquis Software Solutions, Inc. operates within the technology and enterprise software sector, specializing in the development, deployment, and management of proprietary software systems, database architectures, and digital infrastructure for corporate and institutional clients. Because of its core business model, Marquis Software Solutions, Inc. acts as a centralized repository and processing hub for vast quantities of sensitive digital assets, proprietary corporate data, and personally identifiable information (PII) belonging to employees, clients, and end-users. The company's platforms frequently interface with complex networks, making it a critical custodian of high-value digital records. In 2025, Marquis Software Solutions, Inc. reported a significant cybersecurity incident to the South Carolina Attorney General, bringing to light a serious breakdown in its data security apparatus. While investigations into such tech sector breaches often reveal sophisticated attack vectors—such as unauthorized access to cloud storage environments, third-party vendor compromises, credential stuffing, or targeted ransomware operations—the core issue centers on a failure to maintain robust perimeter defenses and secure data segregation protocols. For a software and technology provider, an intrusion of this magnitude indicates vulnerabilities that allowed unauthorized threat actors to infiltrate internal networks and access sensitive directories. The data compromised in the Marquis Software Solutions, Inc. breach typically encompasses a dangerous combination of personal identifiers and corporate credentials, including full names, dates of birth, Social Security numbers, email addresses, encrypted credential hashes, and potentially proprietary financial or operational records. The exposure of this information creates severe, multi-faceted risks for affected individuals. Social Security numbers and dates of birth form the foundational triad for identity theft, enabling bad actors to open fraudulent credit lines, secure unauthorized loans, or intercept tax refunds. Furthermore, exposed login credentials and email addresses routinely serve as entry points for credential-stuffing attacks across other online platforms, multiplying the threat of comprehensive financial and personal account takeover. As a technology and software services provider handling sensitive personal and corporate data, Marquis Software Solutions, Inc. is bound by stringent legal duties under state consumer protection statutes, common law negligence principles, and the Federal Trade Commission Act. These legal frameworks mandate that companies holding sensitive data implement and maintain reasonable and appropriate security measures, including multi-factor authentication, regular penetration testing, adequate encryption standards, and continuous network monitoring. The occurrence of a widespread data breach strongly suggests that Marquis Software Solutions, Inc. failed to fulfill these fundamental legal obligations, allowing preventable vulnerabilities to be exploited by malicious outsiders. Receiving a data breach notification letter from Marquis Software Solutions, Inc. is an official acknowledgment that your private information was compromised due to inadequate corporate security. Under modern legal standards, the receipt of this notice establishes the concrete legal standing necessary to participate in a class action lawsuit and seek accountability. You do not need to prove that you have already suffered actual financial loss or identity theft to take legal action; the increased, imminent risk of future fraud is itself a recognized injury. Our firm investigates these cases on a strict contingency fee basis, meaning there are never any out-of-pocket costs or fees unless we successfully recover compensation on your behalf.
Based on the data types reported in this filing:
Your SSN is the master key to your identity. Once exposed, criminals can open new lines of credit, take out loans, or file taxes in your name.
Combined with a name and other leaked data, date of birth helps criminals pass identity verification questions at banks and government agencies.
You may have been affected by the Marquis Software Solutions, Inc. data breach if:
Common categories of compensation in data breach class actions
Courts recognize that the time spent monitoring accounts, placing credit freezes, and dealing with the aftermath of a breach has real economic value. This category of damages is recoverable even without direct financial loss.
Professional credit monitoring services cost $10–$40 per month. Identity theft restoration services, if needed, can cost hundreds of hours and thousands of dollars. Courts have awarded these costs as direct damages in SSN breach cases.
When login credentials are exposed, the costs of downstream account compromises — password managers, security audits, and recovery costs for hijacked downstream accounts — can be recovered. Courts in recent class actions have awarded damages for credential exposure even without proven misuse.
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 South Carolina data breach notification law, which mandates notification and establishes your right to seek damages.
No. Under South Carolina data breach notification law 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.
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.
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.
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.
Accepting free credit monitoring from Marquis Software 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.
Not necessarily. Many data breach victims are never notified directly. If your personal information was held by Marquis Software Solutions, Inc. during the relevant period, you may still qualify even without receiving a letter. A free eligibility review can confirm your status.
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.
