On August 23, 2025, Idera experienced a significant data breach when an unauthorized party accessed a third-party file-hosting system. Although there is no evidence of fraud or identity theft, Idera is offering two years of free credit monitoring and identity protection services. If you were affected by this breach, you may be entitled to compensation through a class action lawsuit.

Idera’s Data Breach Investigation

Idera’s breach occurred after an external party accessed a third-party file-hosting system used by the company. The breach was detected on October 31, 2025, but the unauthorized access was initially reported on August 23, 2025. Once discovered, the company took immediate steps to contain the breach, notifying federal law enforcement agencies and working with forensic teams to investigate the incident.

While the breach was confined to a third-party file-hosting system and did not affect Idera’s own products or other systems, the breach still exposed sensitive personal information.

The breach, however, did not lead to any confirmed identity theft or fraud, but Idera is still taking precautionary measures to protect the affected individuals. The company has offered two years of free credit monitoring and identity protection services through IDX, which includes monitoring of financial accounts, a $1,000,000 identity theft insurance reimbursement policy, and dark web monitoring. The breach affects 2,015 individuals, including two residents from Maine, which prompted notifications to consumer reporting agencies in compliance with state law.
