Ashley Madison to Pay $11.2 Million to Data Breach Victims

Ashley Madison has agreed to an $11.2 million settlement for 37 million users whose personal details were exposed in a massive data breach two years ago. The site was breached in July 2015 and hackers dumped nearly 100 gigabytes’ worth of sensitive data. The leaked data included victims’ usernames, first and last names, email addresses, passwords, credit card data information, street names, phone numbers, and transactions records. Users with valid claims can get up to $3,500 depending on their losses attributable to the breach.
