Sperm donation giant California Cryobank warns of a data breach

The investigation has determined that the attack exposed varying personal data for customers, including names, bank accounts and routing numbers, Social Security numbers, driver's license numbers, payment card numbers, and/or health insurance information. US sperm donor giant California Cryobank is warning customers it suffered a data breach that exposed customers' personal information. "Through our investigation, CCB determined that an unauthorized party gained access to our IT environment and may have accessed and/or acquired files maintained on certain computer systems between April 20, 2024 and April 22, 2024," reads a data breach notification from California Cryobank. It is unclear if donor information, including donor ID numbers, was stolen in the breach, which would be a significant privacy concern to those who donated sperm in the past anonymously. California Cryobank is a full-service sperm bank providing frozen donor sperm and specialized reproductive services, such as egg and embryo storage. California Cryobanks is offering a free one-year credit monitoring to those whose Social Security or driver's license numbers were exposed in the breach. BleepingComputer contacted California Cryobank to determine if donor data was exposed but has not received a response to our email at this time.
