Thomson Reuters disclosed a data breach of its C-Track court management platform, affecting court records across 11 US states, the US Virgin Islands, and Ontario courts. The breach exposes sensitive personal data of individuals with no direct relationship to Thomson Reuters, highlighting gaps in vendor cybersecurity liability and insurance coverage for third-party data breaches.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Cybersecurity.

◆ The Wire takeaway

You now face heightened risk from vendor data breaches that expose sensitive court data without your direct control. Secure clear vendor cyber insurance terms and protection for third-party data liability before renewing policies.
