A major security breach has targeted the United States court system, leading to the unauthorized access and potential loss of data for approximately 1.3 million people. The incident, which spans three decades of court records, represents a substantial compromise of sensitive information held within the judicial infrastructure.

In addition to the personal data of over one million individuals, the attackers successfully accessed approximately 30,000 active and inactive orders of protection. These documents are particularly sensitive as they often contain private information related to domestic violence cases and individuals seeking legal safety measures. Furthermore, the breach included 150,000 reports dating back to 2010. While the full extent of the damage is still being assessed, the nature of the stolen files suggests a deep penetration into court administrative systems. Authorities have not yet publicly identified the perpetrators or confirmed the specific methods used to bypass existing security protocols. The incident highlights ongoing vulnerabilities in government digital record-keeping systems and raises concerns regarding the privacy and safety of those whose legal records were exposed.
