Check your mail, AT&T wireless customers — you might have an announcement from the company disclosing a data security breach that happened two months ago. Snail, mail indeed. AT&T confirmed over the weekend that three workers at one of the company’s vendors accessed an undisclosed amount of AT&T Mobility customers’ records.
It’s unclear why AT&T took this long to alert customers as the breach reportedly took place in April and was discovered in May, the Atlanta Business Chronicle says . The company is also keeping mum on exactly how many customer’s accounts were affected.
But according to Re/code, the company has admitted the breach and has apparently sent customers a notification in the mail.
