Plaid Inc data breach

Clerk's notes

Plaid Inc, a provider of financial software solutions and open-banking connectivity, filed a data breach report with Indiana regulators on April 27, 2026. This report pertains to a security incident that occurred on December 25, 2024, and is currently under monitoring as an investigation continues.

The breach involved a significant scope of personal information, including Full Name, Social Security Number, Date of Birth, Financial Account Number, Routing Number, Email Address, Mailing Address, Transaction History, and Password or Credential Hash. The exposure of such a wide range of data, particularly financial and identity-related details, presents immediate and long-term risks for affected individuals.
