A settlement has been reached with Finastra Technology, Inc. (“Finastra” or “Defendant”) in a class action lawsuit. This case is about the targeted cyberattack on Finastra's computer systems that occurred in October 2024 (the “Data Incident”). Certain files that contained private information were accessed. These files may have contained personal information such as names; dates of birth; Social Security numbers; and financial account numbers.
The lawsuit is called Tina Parsley Hughes, et al. v. Finastra Technology, Inc., Case No. CACE26013154. It is pending in the Circuit Court for Broward County, Florida (the “Litigation”). Finastra denies that it did anything wrong, and the Court has not decided who is right. The parties have agreed to settle the lawsuit (the “Settlement”) to avoid the costs and risks, disruptions, and uncertainties of continuing the Litigation. “Class Members” are defined as individuals identified by Finastra's records who are entitled to benefits under the Settlement. Class Members may have received a previous notice directly from Finastra.
