Consero Global’s Data Breach Investigation
Consero Global LLC (“Consero”) recently disclosed a cybersecurity incident that may have compromised sensitive personal data. The breach was discovered on or around July 4, 2025, prompting an immediate investigation and response. While there is no current evidence of misuse, Consero acknowledged that unauthorized access to certain files and folders occurred between April 27 and July 4, 2025.
Consero is a financial services provider that supports Propeller Industries by managing specific processes such as the year-end 1099 filings. As part of its operations, Consero handles sensitive information on behalf of Propeller Industries’ clients and their associated personnel. The data exposure incident came to light following suspicious activity within Consero’s systems. Upon discovery, Consero secured its environment and initiated a forensic investigation to assess the breach’s scope and the specific information involved.
The forensic review included a combination of automated and manual methods to determine which individuals and data elements may have been affected. According to their findings, the compromised data likely includes personally identifiable information (PII), particularly names and Social Security numbers.
In response, Consero has taken steps to bolster its cybersecurity defenses and mitigate future risks. These actions include reviewing existing policies, enhancing system protections, and notifying impacted individuals. To assist those potentially affected, Consero is offering complimentary credit monitoring, identity theft protection, and fraud resolution services for one year, provided by Cyberscout, a TransUnion company.
Although Consero claims there is no indication of actual misuse, the presence of Social Security numbers in the compromised files significantly increases the risk of identity theft.
