In March 2026, A.C. Scott Electric, a family-owned electrical company operating in New Jersey, was reportedly targeted by the Dragonforce ransomware group. The attack was publicly claimed by Dragonforce on March 6, 2026, and discovered on the same day. No official sources, victim notifications, or details regarding the breach scope or data exfiltration have been reported.
Currently, there is no information available on the number of affected individuals or the specific types of data exposed, such as SSN, medical, or financial information. The states affected beyond New Jersey operations also remain unclear. It has not been publicly confirmed whether any official breach notifications were issued, nor are there any records of State Attorney General filings, company statements, or any related class action lawsuits or MDLs.
Details surrounding this incident may emerge over time as investigations potentially unfold. Notices to affected individuals, if any, may also be delayed.
