Thyssenkrupp Materials agreed to a class action lawsuit settlement to resolve claims it failed to protect consumer information in a 2020 data breach.

Plaintiffs in the class action lawsuit accused Thyssenkrupp of failing to protect their information in a 2020 data breach. According to consumers, the data breach could have been prevented through reasonable cybersecurity measures.

In late 2020, Thyssenkrupp was the victim of a ransomware cyberattack which compromised the information of current and former employees. Sensitive data such as Social Security numbers and bank account information was reportedly accessed in the attack.

Thyssenkrupp hasn’t admitted any wrongdoing but agreed to pay an undisclosed sum to resolve these allegations.
