IDScan.net Confirms Breach Of Customer ID Document Data

IDScan.net Confirms Breach Of Customer ID Document Data

The company found the intrusion in its cloud system around September 1, then waited three days before telling customers.

  • Breach discovered around September 1, 2026, inside IDScan.net's cloud account storage.
  • Exposed data includes full names and driver's license or other government ID numbers.
  • IDScan.net hired outside cybersecurity investigators and is cooperating with federal law enforcement.

Why it matters: A business built to verify identity documents could not guard the identity documents in its own custody.
