On April 3, 2025, Nevro Corp. notified the Texas Attorney General's office about a data breach impacting the personal and medical information of thousands of people. According to the disclosure filed with the Texas Attorney General, the breach affected approximately 6,381 people in Texas alone.
The breach involved unauthorized access to sensitive consumer data, including personally identifiable information (PII) like individuals' names, Social Security numbers, driver's license numbers, and financial information such as account numbers and credit or debit card numbers. Protected health information (PHI) like medical information and health insurance details were also exposed.
The company has not yet identified or publicly named the individuals or groups responsible for the breach. Given the sensitive nature of the information compromised, the breach is considered severe, as it could potentially lead to identity theft, financial fraud, or misuse of personal medical information.
In response to the data breach, Nevro Corp. has taken steps to notify affected individuals directly via U.S. Mail. Those affected by the breach should carefully review the notification letter they receive, as it may contain specific instructions and resources provided by Nevro to help protect their identity and financial information.
Individuals impacted by this breach are advised to closely monitor their financial accounts, credit reports, and health insurance statements for any unusual or unauthorized activity. It is recommended that affected persons consider placing a fraud alert or credit freeze on their credit files through the major credit reporting agencies (Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion) to help prevent potential identity theft.
