Cohn Lifland Pearlman Herrmann & Knopf, LLP reported an unauthorized network access occurring on or about March 27, 2025. The firm engaged outside cybersecurity professionals to investigate and contain the incident. The investigation concluded on or about October 3, 2025, revealing that unauthorized parties accessed files containing full names and potentially other personal information. The firm is offering one year of complimentary IDX identity protection services to affected individuals.

These respected guys didn't seem to have much respect for their c lients, as a huge amount of personal information was almost unpro tected. We took 110 GB of files where a lot of client information can be found: passports, driver's licenses, birth/death certific ates, correspondence, addresses, contacts and more. There is also a lot of data about the firm in the form of financial statements and other documents, and many of them are confidential. The most interesting thing about this case is that these guys didn't want to pay even with an active cyber insurance policy. We will uploa d the files shortly.
