The compromised data includes the following:
- Full Names
- Dates of Birth
- Physical Addresses

- Driver’s License Numbers
- Passport Numbers
- Government Identification Numbers
- Griffon Account Numbers
- Health Insurance Information
- Non-Griffon Related Information (saved on Griffon’s servers)
Griffon Corporation Data Breach
Griffon Corporation recently sent notification to affected employees informing them of the data breach. All of the information stolen is likely valuable and dangerous to affected victims. As is likely to be the case with the Griffon data breach, in previous cyber-attacks, victims of data theft have noticed identity theft attempts ranging from fraudulent charges on bank accounts or credit cards, to unauthorized credit card applications, to medical services or government services ordered in their name, to their information being posted on the dark web, to a massive uptick in the number of spam text messages, calls and emails received.
