What Happened?

On December 2, 2024, SGS discovered unauthorized access to its information-technology environment. An internal investigation later confirmed that on November 18, 2024, an outside actor infiltrated SGS systems and accessed files containing personal information. The company completed its file review in late July 2025 and began mailing notification letters shortly thereafter.

Whose Information Was Exposed?

According to SGS, the breach potentially compromised both personally identifiable information (PII) and protected health information (PHI). Impacted data points vary by individual and can include:

• Name
• Social Security number
• Date of birth
• Contact details (phone, email, postal address)
• Financial account numbers
• Passport or driver’s license number
• Taxpayer ID number
• Medical and health insurance information
• Demographic data

How SGS Is Responding

The company states it has implemented additional security measures and is offering complimentary credit monitoring services to affected individuals. Details on how to enroll are provided in the mailed notice.

Your Legal Rights & Next Steps

If your information was exposed, you could face out-of-pocket costs, time spent monitoring accounts, and increased risk of identity theft or medical fraud. U.S. privacy laws may entitle you to financial compensation when negligence leads to a data breach.

Recommended Actions

• Enroll in the free credit monitoring offered by SGS immediately.
• Place fraud alerts and consider a credit freeze with all three major bureaus.
• Monitor bank, credit-card, and health-insurance statements for unusual activity.
• Update passwords and enable multi-factor authentication wherever possible.
• Consult with a data-breach attorney to understand your compensation options.
