Anthem agreed late Friday to pay $115 million to settle U.S. lawsuits around a data breach that hit the company in 2015. The company denies any wrongdoing or that any individuals were harmed as a result of the attack. The funds will mostly go towards two years of credit monitoring for the breach s victims. A preliminary motion filed by attorneys representing the plaintiffs approving the settlement was also filed Friday. The settlement could be the largest data breach settlement in history if approved by a judge.
