Kelly Associates is notifying affected individuals on behalf of several major clients, including Amergis, Beam Benefits, Beltway Companies, CareFirst BlueCross BlueShield, Guardian Life Insurance Company of America, Intercon Truck of Baltimore, Publishers Circulation Fulfilment, Quantum Real Estate Management, and Transforming Lives. “Kelly Associates then began a time-intensive and detailed review of all files affected by this event to determine what information was present in the impacted files and to whom it related,” the company stated in its breach notification. A data breach at Kelly & Associates Insurance Group (operating as Kelly Benefits) has exposed sensitive personal information of more than 410,000 individuals, significantly more than initially reported. As data breaches continue to plague companies handling sensitive information, this incident highlights the growing scale and impact of such security failures on consumers. One complaint alleges that Kelly Benefits “negligently failed to protect the personal information of thousands of people” and breached its duties under various laws, including HIPAA and the FTC Act. The compromised data includes names, Social Security numbers, dates of birth, tax identification numbers, financial account information, and health insurance and medical information.
