Infosys Settles $17.5 Million Cybersecurity Lawsuit in the U.S.

Mar 17 / Nayanika
Infosys, a global leader in IT services, has agreed to a $17.5 million settlement to resolve class-action lawsuits following a major cybersecurity breach at its U.S. subsidiary, Infosys McCamish Systems. The breach, which occurred in November 2023, compromised the personal data of approximately 6.5 million individuals, including sensitive details such as Social Security numbers and addresses.
This settlement was reached through mediation on March 13, 2025, and remains subject to court approval and further due diligence from the plaintiffs. Infosys has stated that the settlement is not an admission of liability, underscoring its commitment to addressing the issue and safeguarding client trust.

The incident had a tangible financial impact, with a 60-basis-point reduction in Infosys’s operating margins and added revenue pressures. In response, the company has taken extensive measures to strengthen its cybersecurity framework, aiming to prevent such breaches in the future.

This development highlights the increasing challenges of cybersecurity for organizations entrusted with handling sensitive data. It reinforces the importance of robust data protection practices in navigating today’s ever-evolving threat landscape.
