What we know
Iowa County functions as a local government entity responsible for managing essential public services and administrative records for its residents. In the course of these operations, the county typically collects and stores sensitive personal information, including full names, Social Security numbers, residential addresses, driver’s license numbers, and various financial records related to tax payments or public assistance. This data breach was officially reported to the Indiana Attorney General in 2025, confirming that unauthorized access to these systems occurred. If you have received a formal data breach notification letter, it indicates that your personal information was likely contained within the impacted files. We recommend reviewing the letter carefully to understand the specific steps the county is taking to support those affected by this incident.
