Brightstar Global Solutions Corporation Data Breach Lawsuit

Brightstar Global Solutions Corporation suffered a serious data breach after unauthorized access to its internal systems. The company is now notifying affected individuals and offering identity monitoring services due to the exposure of sensitive personal data.

Brightstar Global Solutions Corporation’s Data Breach Investigation

Brightstar Global Solutions Corporation, in conjunction with IGT Group and Brightstar Lottery Group, is at the center of a significant cybersecurity incident. On November 17, 2024, the Companies discovered that an unauthorized third party had infiltrated certain internal corporate systems. The breach triggered an immediate response, including system lockdowns, internal investigations, and law enforcement notification.

The investigation into this breach was complex due to the unstructured nature of the compromised data. A detailed manual review was necessary to determine the extent of the information exposed. That review concluded on August 21, 2025—nine months after the breach was first discovered. Only then were impacted individuals notified that their personal information may have been accessed.

Brightstar emphasized that it has taken numerous steps to bolster its cybersecurity defenses in the wake of this incident. This includes ongoing system monitoring, enhanced technical safeguards, and a partnership with law enforcement to prevent future incidents.

The breach raises concerns about how long sensitive data was exposed and why it took nearly a year to notify individuals. Given the breadth of information compromised—ranging from Social Security numbers to health data—consumers face real risks of identity theft and financial fraud.

This incident underscores the importance of accountability when companies handle highly sensitive personal data. For affected individuals, knowing your rights and potential legal options is crucial. Class Action U is here to help you explore those next steps.
