Storage Durango, a locally owned storage company based in Nevada, has reported a data breach involving unauthorized access to certain systems within its environment. Those affected are encouraged to remain vigilant by monitoring their financial accounts and credit reports for any unauthorized activity.

Storage Durango Data Breach Details

On August 31, 2024, Storage Durango detected suspicious activity related to certain systems within its network. After identifying the issue, the company quickly secured its systems and launched an investigation to assess the nature and extent of the breach. The investigation revealed that between August 8 and August 31, 2024, an unauthorized actor gained access to the company’s computer network and potentially accessed or acquired a limited number of files.

Upon discovering the breach, Storage Durango took immediate action to investigate the incident thoroughly and determine the full scope of the compromise. As part of its ongoing commitment to privacy and security, the company has strengthened its security policies and implemented additional measures to protect against similar incidents in the future. Storage Durango is also notifying state regulators as required.

As a precautionary measure, Storage Durango is offering affected individuals complimentary credit monitoring and identity theft protection services for 24 months through Cyberscout, a TransUnion company. These services are designed to help detect and address potential misuse of personal information.

The services include:

  • Credit monitoring to help identify signs of fraudulent activity.

  • Identity theft protection services to assist with the immediate identification and resolution of identity theft issues.

What Information Was Compromised?

 While the specifics vary for each individual, the types of information that could have been affected include:

  • Name

  • Date of Birth

  • Social Security Number

  • Driver’s License

How to Know if You Were Affected

If you received a data breach notification from Storage Durango, 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 Storage Durango Data Breach

Stay Alert for Phishing Scams
Scammers may exploit the data breach by posing as Storage Durango. 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.
