While no misuse of the exposed data has been identified, Zenith is offering complimentary identity monitoring and protection services through Experian®  IdentityWorks.

What Information Was Involved?

The breached data may include personal information such as:

  • Full Name
  • Date of Birth
  • Social Security Number
  • Birth Certificate & Marriage Certificate Details
  • Financial and Banking Information

How to Know if You Were Affected

If you received a data breach notification from Zenith American Solutions, 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 Zenith American Solutions Data Breach

Stay Alert for Phishing Scams
Scammers may exploit the data breach by posing as Zenith American Solutions. 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.
