The U.S. telecom company said the FBI is investigating and at least one person has been arrested after AT&T call logs were copied from its workspace on a third-party cloud platform, in a significant breach of consumer communication records.
The breach occurred in April and involved records of calls and texts from 2022. The leaked data does not appear to include financial information or specifics about call history. AT&T has stated that approximately 7.6 million current account holders and 65.4 million former account holders were affected by the breach.
