The specific type of breach and the categories of personal information involved have not been publicly detailed. However, as a credit union, Connected Credit Union collects and maintains sensitive personal data necessary for transactions, identity verification, and account management.

If you received a data breach notification letter from Connected Credit Union, it indicates that your personal information may have been compromised during this event. The investigation into the incident is currently ongoing, as noted in the filing.

The letter may also provide information on credit monitoring or identity protection services being offered to help safeguard your financial security.

To protect yourself, regularly monitor your financial accounts and review your credit reports for any suspicious activity. Be wary of unsolicited communications requesting personal information.
