Individuals whose names appeared in 322,525 documents published on the internet will be notified.
The State Bar of California revealed Monday, March 14, that the public release of confidential attorney discipline records was more widespread than initially reported, but said only a fraction of the complaints was ever viewed.
“The State Bar takes the data breach seriously and is devoting significant resources to assess its impact and pursue all available remedies,” Executive Director Leah Wilson said. “While the State Bar is still actively investigating this incident, our commitment to transparency has and will continue to result in regular and timely updates on the process as it unfolds.”
In addition to the 322,525 confidential records available online, the State Bar said judyrecords published 47,964 public court records. Of the discipline records, 188 include personal information, with 159 pertaining to inactive State Bar memberships due to mental illness or substance abuse. One record included a Social Security number.
The State Bar maintains there was no malicious hack of its computer system. The data breach appears to have been caused by a previously unknown security vulnerability in the State Bar’s Odyssey case management portal that allowed the nonpublic records to be unintentionally swept up by judyrecords when it accessed public records..
