TAK Broadband, LLC (“TAK”) recently announced a data breach affecting 20,648 individuals, including one resident of Maine.

If your data was affected, you may be entitled to compensation through a class action lawsuit.

TAK Broadband’s Data Breach Investigation

On August 11, 2025, TAK Broadband became aware of suspicious activity within its network. After containing the network and securing its systems, the company launched an investigation with the assistance of outside cybersecurity professionals. The investigation revealed that an unauthorized third party accessed TAK’s systems between August 2, 2025, and August 12, 2025, and obtained certain files.

A thorough review of the affected files was conducted, and it was determined that some of these files contained personal information. This review, completed on January 14, 2026, identified the specific individuals whose information was compromised. TAK has since initiated notifications to those impacted by the breach.

When Did This Breach Occur?

The unauthorized access occurred between August 2, 2025, and August 12, 2025, with the breach being detected on August 11, 2025. A complete review of the compromised files was finalized on January 14, 2026, and notifications were sent to those whose information was affected.

What Information Was Breached?

The compromised files contained the following personal information:

  • Full name

  • (Other specific details not mentioned, but would typically include sensitive personal data like Social Security numbers, addresses, or financial information)

TAK has not specified additional data involved but advises affected individuals to take protective actions.

What You Can Do

If your personal information was compromised, TAK Broadband encourages you to take the following steps to protect yourself:

  1. Monitor your credit reports and financial statements: Review your credit reports and bank statements for any suspicious activity or errors. You are entitled to one free credit report each year from each of the three major credit bureaus: TransUnion, Experian, and Equifax.

  2. Place a fraud alert or credit freeze: You can place a fraud alert on your credit file at no charge. This alerts creditors to take additional steps to verify your identity before granting credit. Alternatively, consider placing a credit freeze, which will prevent creditors from accessing your credit report without your consent.

  3. Enroll in credit monitoring services: TAK Broadband is offering complimentary access to Single Bureau Credit Monitoring, Single Bureau Credit Report, and Single Bureau Credit Score services for a specific duration through Cyberscout, a TransUnion company. Be sure to enroll yourself, as TAK cannot complete the enrollment on your behalf.

  4. Report suspicious activity: If you notice any unauthorized transactions or believe you are a victim of identity theft, immediately report the issue to your financial institutions and local law enforcement.
