Case notes

The Indiana Family and Social Services Administration (FSSA) filed notice of a data breach with regulators on February 27, 2025. The filing indicates that an incident impacting FSSA systems began on February 21, 2025.

According to the official notice, the specific type of breach and the categories of personal information involved were not detailed in the public record at the time of reporting. Consequently, it is currently unknown what specific types of data may have been exposed.

The number of individuals potentially affected by this incident is also unspecified in the publicly available filing. The Family and Social Services Administration has stated that the incident is currently under investigation.

Individuals who believe they may be affected by this breach should remain vigilant. Review all financial statements and account activity for any suspicious transactions. Consider placing a fraud alert or security freeze on your credit reports with the major credit bureaus.

It is always prudent to be cautious of unsolicited communications, especially those requesting personal details. Legitimate organizations typically do not ask for sensitive information via email or unverified phone calls. Change passwords for online accounts, particularly if they are reused across multiple services.

Questions about this case file

Where does the Family and Social Services Administration case file come from?
Every entry is taken from the breach report Family and Social Services Administration lodged with the Indiana Attorney General. Nothing here is estimated.
Why do the incident date and the report date differ?
Companies usually investigate before they report. The gap between the two dates shows how long that took.
What does the records-affected figure count?
It is the number the company gave the state. It can cover residents of that state only, so the national total may be higher.
Does this case file change over time?
Yes. When a company files an update or a new state publishes its copy of the report, the dates and counts here are refreshed.
