Una empresa con sede en Wisconsin ha accedido a pagar millones a un fondo para resolver las reclamaciones derivadas de una violación de datos que expuso detalles personales sensibles de cientos de miles de personas.
Johnson Controls afirma que se dio cuenta, el 24 de septiembre de 2023 o cerca de esa fecha, de un incidente cibernético en el que un tercero no autorizado accedió a sus sistemas del 1 de febrero al 30 de septiembre de 2023 y obtuvo información como nombres, números de seguridad social, fechas de nacimiento, datos de salud y médicos, cuentas financieras, identificaciones gubernamentales e información biométrica.
Se ha notificado a unas 578.699 personas, comenzando las notificaciones en junio de 2025.
El Tribunal de Distrito de los Estados Unidos para el Distrito Oriental de Wisconsin concedió su aprobación preliminar el 18 de septiembre de 2026 a un fondo de 5,475 millones de dólares en el caso “In re Johnson Controls, Inc. Data Incident Litigation”.
El grupo de afectados incluye a todos los residentes estadounidenses vivos a quienes se les notificó que su información podría haber sido comprometida.
Las personas que reúnan los requisitos pueden solicitar hasta 5.000 dólares en compensación por las pérdidas documentadas relacionadas con el incidente, o optar por un pago en efectivo de 50 dólares que no requiere documentación.
Todos los reclamantes también pueden solicitar un servicio de monitoreo de crédito durante dos años, así como un seguro contra robo de identidad por un importe de hasta 1 millón de dólares.
Las reclamaciones deben presentarse antes del 1 de febrero de 2027, y la audiencia de aprobación final está programada para el 15 de enero de 2027.
Johnson Controls niega todas las acusaciones y cualquier comportamiento ilegal, y el tribunal aún no ha emitido un veredicto sobre los hechos.
Johnson Controls es una empresa de tecnología para edificios que cotiza en bolsa y tiene su sede en Wisconsin.
