Have you been affected by Sedgebrook's data breach?

Sedgebrook OpCo SL VII LLC (“Sedgebrook”) recently reported a cybersecurity incident that may have exposed personal information belonging to individuals associated with the company. Although Sedgebrook has stated there is no evidence of fraud or identity theft resulting from the breach, the company is offering free identity protection and credit monitoring services as a precaution.

Sedgebrook’s Data Breach Investigation

Sedgebrook detected suspicious activity within its computer network on May 5, 2025. The company immediately launched an internal investigation, secured its systems, and contacted law enforcement. To ensure a thorough review, Sedgebrook also engaged a leading forensic cybersecurity firm to determine the scope and nature of the breach.

According to the investigation, an unauthorized third party accessed Sedgebrook’s systems between May 4 and May 5, 2025. During this time, the attacker encrypted certain company files and may have acquired data stored within the network. After a comprehensive review of the affected files, Sedgebrook determined on August 26, 2025, that some files contained personal information belonging to individuals associated with the organization.

Although Sedgebrook has found no indication that the compromised information has been used for identity theft or fraud, the company has taken significant steps to mitigate risk. These include strengthening technical safeguards and enhancing system monitoring to prevent similar incidents in the future.

In response to the breach, Sedgebrook is offering affected individuals a two-year membership with Experian IdentityWorks Credit 3B, a service designed to help detect and respond to potential misuse of personal data. This service includes credit monitoring, identity restoration assistance, and identity theft insurance—all provided at no cost to affected individuals.
