Lansing Community College Data Breach Investigation
Chimicles Schwartz Kriner & Donaldson-Smith is investigating potential class action claims against Lansing Community College (LCC) following a recent data security incident that may have impacted individuals whose personal information was maintained on its network.
On February 18, 2025, LCC identified unauthorized access to certain systems within its network environment. After discovering the incident, LCC engaged third-party cybersecurity specialists to secure its systems and launched an investigation, which determined that an unauthorized actor had gained access through credential compromise on approximately February 12, 2025. LCC then undertook a further review to determine the scope of the incident and to identify the individuals whose information may have been involved.
What Information Was Compromised?
According to LCC, the information stored within the impacted systems varied by individual and may have included personal information such as name, address, date of birth, Social Security number, driver’s license number, or other information provided to or maintained by LCC.
Why Is This Important?
Data breaches involving Social Security numbers, dates of birth, and driver’s license numbers expose affected individuals to a heightened and long-term risk of identity theft, financial fraud, tax fraud, and the opening of unauthorized accounts.
