Cencora Data Security Settlement
The federal court has preliminarily approved the proposed settlement of the Cencora Data Security Class Action. The lawsuit was filed against Cencora, Lash Group, or other affiliates over the data security incident, where a third party accessed people’s personal information.
The defendant disclosed the data incident on February 27, 2024, and provided the notice to the individuals about the data security incident. Cencora filed the Form 8-K with the US Securities and Exchange Commission, confirming the data incident may have caused the leak of personal information.
Now, the federal court has approved the proposed settlement agreement, which both plaintiff and defendant agree to. The defendant disagrees with any wrongdoing, but proposes a settlement with a $40 million fund and ends the litigation.
The claim process has begun, so people who were affected by the Cencora data incident can file the claim form before the deadline, 19 January 2026; however, if you wish to exclude yourself from the settlement, you must file the form before 18 December 2025.
