Senate Inquiry Into AT&T Security Breach

WASHINGTON, July 18, 2024 – Two United States Senators demanded information regarding the recent security breach of AT&T’s private customer data in a letter to the company’s CEO on Tuesday.

On Friday, AT&T announced that six months of sensitive customer data, such as phone and text message records, were illegally accessed from a third-party cloud platform, called Snowflake. AT&T told consumers that it learned that the data was compromised in April and subsequently launched an investigation.
