What Happened at TRISTAR?

Back in November 2022, TRISTAR detected suspicious activity within its computer network and launched an investigation with third-party cybersecurity specialists. The review concluded that the unauthorized party removed certain confidential information from its computer network.

On February 1, 2024, TRISTAR Insurance Group filed a notice of data breach with the Attorney General of California after they determined that an unauthorized party accessed the company’s email. The hackers may have been able to access consumers’ sensitive information such as names and Social Security numbers. The company has begun sending out data breach notification letters to all individuals whose information was involved.

If you receive a notification letter from TRISTAR Insurance, it is important to understand what is at risk and how you can begin to mitigate your security risks in the future. Our data breach lawyers can help you file a complaint and seek compensation for related damages.
