Indiana Family & Social Services Administration data breach

Clerk's notes

The Indiana Family & Social Services Administration (FSSA) officially reported a data breach to the Indiana Attorney General on September 30, 2025. This incident involved unauthorized access to the agency's systems, which manage extensive sensitive records for Indiana residents participating in public health and social service programs.

The breach itself occurred on September 29, 2025. While the specific nature of the breach and the exact types of personal information exposed remain unspecified, individuals who received a formal data breach notification letter should assume their data was likely stored within the affected systems. The agency's systems often contain identifiers and eligibility information.

For those affected, it is critical to remain vigilant. Review your financial and other statements regularly for any unusual activity. Consider changing passwords for online accounts, especially if you reuse them. Be cautious of unsolicited communications, such as emails, calls, or texts, that ask for personal details, as these could be phishing attempts related to the breach.

This case is currently under investigation, meaning authorities are still working to understand the full scope and impact of the unauthorized access. The reporting to the Attorney General marks a formal step in addressing the incident and informing those potentially affected.
