Profile
Progressive Leasing, also known by its alias, is an organization headquartered in the United States of America. The company operates under the name Progressive Leasing and is recognized by that alias in public filings and media reports. It maintains a presence within the United States as its primary location of headquarters.
On September 9, 2023, Progressive Leasing experienced a cybersecurity incident involving an external system breach. The breach compromised sensitive personal information, including Social Security Numbers, of individuals. The affected population was described as hundreds of thousands of individuals. The ransomware group AlphV/Black Cat claimed responsibility for the attack. The group alleged that data from millions of customers had been stolen. Progressive Leasing confirmed that a substantial amount of personally identifiable information was involved in the incident. In response, the company engaged third‑party cybersecurity experts and law‑enforcement authorities. Regulatory notifications were issued as part of the breach response process. The investigation and remediation generated significant expenses, which may be partially offset by cybersecurity insurance coverage. To assist those impacted, Progressive Leasing offered identity theft protection services, including credit monitoring, to affected individuals.
