Progress Software (docket 1:23-cv-11913) in MOVEit Customer Data Security Breach Litigation before the U.S. Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation. Plaintiffs, customers of Guardian Life Insurance, allege their “highly sensitive [personally identifiable information]" provided to GLIC was among the data accessed and exfiltrated by an unauthorized third party in the May Progress Software data breach. Plaintiffs, who name PSC as the sole defendant, received notice that their PII was compromised in the breach by Pension Benefits Information. Casey plaintiffs charge PSC with negligence and negligence per se.
