Service Lighting, Inc. was the subject of a data breach notification filed with the OR Attorney General. The AG filing was recorded on March 5, 2026. The breach or discovery date reported in the filing is March 12, 2025.
From the AG filing description
Service Lighting, Inc. operates as a specialized distributor and commercial supplier in the lighting, electrical, and commercial hardware sector, providing comprehensive lighting solutions, architectural fixtures, and maintenance supplies to commercial, industrial, and municipal clients across the country. Because of the nature of its business operations, enterprise procurement, and large-scale commercial fulfillment, the company maintains extensive databases containing highly sensitive personal and professional information. This includes comprehensive personnel records, vendor banking details, B2B account histories, credit applications, and corporate compliance documentation. Furthermore, to support its workforce and sprawling distribution network, Service Lighting, Inc. routinely collects and stores voluminous employee data, including Social Security numbers, banking details for direct payroll deposits, home addresses, tax withholding forms, and benefits enrollment records. In 2026, Service Lighting, Inc. formally reported a significant data security incident to the Oregon Attorney General, triggering legal scrutiny regarding the adequacy of its cybersecurity infrastructure. While exact technical findings continue to be evaluated through ongoing investigations, breaches within industrial distribution and retail supply chain entities typically involve sophisticated cyberattacks such as ransomware deployments, unauthorized entry into legacy enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems, or vulnerabilities exploited within third-party logistics and vendor management software. These threat vectors often allow unauthorized external actors to bypass perimeter defenses, dwell undetected within internal networks for extended periods, and exfiltrate vast repositories of unencrypted confidential files. The exposure resulting from the Service Lighting, Inc. breach implicates multiple categories of sensitive information, each carrying profound risks of downstream harm. Compromised employee and corporate records frequently include full names, Social Security numbers, dates of birth, banking information, and tax documents, which create an immediate and severe danger of identity theft, synthetic identity creation, and unauthorized financial account takeover. When payroll, tax, and direct deposit details are compromised, victims face the alarming prospect of fraudulent tax filings, intercepted wages, and compromised credit profiles that can take years to remediate. In addition, exposure of commercial vendor files and business account details compromises proprietary financial operations, exposing corporate partners to targeted financial fraud and phishing schemes. As an enterprise handling sensitive personal and financial data, Service Lighting, Inc. was legally obligated to implement and maintain robust administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect this information from unauthorized access and disclosure. Under state data protection statutes, including the Oregon Consumer Identity Theft Protection Act and broader common-law duties of care, companies holding personally identifiable information must adhere to industry-standard cybersecurity frameworks, such as regular vulnerability assessments, data encryption at rest and in transit, multi-factor authentication, and prompt patch management. The occurrence of a data breach of this magnitude strongly suggests a failure to meet these baseline legal obligations, pointing toward systemic deficiencies in network monitoring, access controls, and data minimization practices. Receiving a data official breach notification letter from Service Lighting, Inc. serves as formal legal acknowledgment that your personal or professional data was compromised due to inadequate corporate security measures. Under established consumer privacy and class action jurisprudence, the receipt of such a notification letter establishes legal standing to pursue financial compensation and injunctive relief through the courts, and courts have consistently held that victims do not need to prove actual financial loss or identity theft to participate in data privacy litigation. Our law firm is actively investigating potential class action claims against Service Lighting, Inc. on a contingency fee basis, meaning affected individuals pay absolutely no upfront costs or out-of-pocket legal fees, and we only recover attorney fees if a successful financial recovery is secured 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 Service Lighting, 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.
Direct financial losses resulting from the breach — unauthorized charges, fraudulent transfers, or fees incurred through fraud — are recoverable as compensatory damages. Banks may reverse some charges; a class action recovers the remainder and associated costs.
Several state data breach laws provide for statutory minimum damages — fixed amounts recoverable per affected individual regardless of actual loss. These provisions exist specifically to make legal action viable for victims who have not yet experienced direct harm.
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 Oregon Consumer Information Protection Act, which mandates notification and establishes your right to seek damages.
No. Under Oregon Consumer Information Protection Act 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.
Banks may reverse fraudulent charges, but they are not obligated to compensate you for time lost, stress, or indirect damages. A class action claim against the breached company can recover those additional categories of harm.
State statutes of limitations for data breach claims typically run 2–4 years from the date of the breach or its discovery. Because this breach was recently disclosed, the window is open — but acting early preserves your options and strengthens the case.
Accepting free credit monitoring from Service Lighting, 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 Service Lighting, Inc. during the relevant period, you may still qualify even without receiving a letter. A free eligibility review can confirm your status.
