Have you been affected by Life University's data breach?

Life University has notified affected individuals of a recent data security incident that potentially exposed sensitive personal and protected health information. Affected individuals are urged to remain vigilant by regularly reviewing their personal information and monitoring their credit reports for any suspicious activity.

Life University Data Breach Details

On July 30, 2024, Life University experienced an unexpected disruption to their network, which affected the functionality and access of specific systems. The organization quickly responded by disconnecting network access and bringing in specialized cybersecurity experts and IT personnel to investigate the breach.

The investigation determined that unauthorized access to personal and protected health information (PHI) may have occurred. Life University worked with a third-party vendor to review the compromised data, a process that involved both automated and manual review of a large volume of data, which took several months to complete.

As part of its response, Life University is offering 12 months of complimentary credit monitoring and identity theft restoration services through HaystackID. Individuals who have been affected must activate these services themselves by following the provided instructions.

What Information Was Exposed?

  • Account Number and Routing Number

  • Names

How to Know if You Were Affected

If you received a data breach notification from the Life University, your personal information may have been compromised. While most victims are officially notified through a “Notice of Data Breach” in the mail, the consequences—such as fraudulent transactions and identity theft—can begin long before the notice arrives.

Steps to Take if You Were Affected by the Life University Data Breach

Stay Alert for Phishing Scams
Scammers may exploit the data breach by posing as Life University. Be cautious of unexpected emails, texts, or calls requesting personal information. When in doubt, verify communications directly with the company through official channels.

Monitor Your Credit and Financial Accounts
Regularly check your bank statements, credit card activity, and credit reports for unauthorized transactions. Set up account alerts to detect suspicious activity early. Take advantage of free credit reports and review them carefully for unfamiliar accounts or discrepancies.

Consider Freezing Your Credit
For added security, request a credit freeze from all three major credit bureaus. This prevents new accounts from being opened in your name while still allowing you to use existing credit. You can temporarily lift the freeze when necessary if applying for credit.
