ID verification giant IDScan confirms data breach with more than 150 million driver’s licenses stolen

ID verification firm IDScan confirms hackers stole over 150 million driver's license records, including names and license numbers, from its cloud.

IDScan confirmed that threat actors stole driver's license records — full names, license numbers, and other government ID numbers — from the company's cloud systems during a roughly year-long intrusion. Brian Krebs previously reported a dark web service exposing data on over 150 million US and Canada residents, including license photos and records of high-profile individuals such as Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth. The FBI is investigating, and IDScan indicated hackers apparently demanded payment for full access to the stolen cache; the investigation is ongoing.
