CognizantAug 2026
Cognizant notified individuals of a data breach and is offering one million dollars in identity theft coverage. The headline confirms notification and a remediation gesture but does not name the entry point, the actor, the number affected, or the data types involved. A company built on managing other organizations' systems and data has disclosed a breach of unspecified scope, and the insurance offer addresses downstream harm, but not the architecture that allowed the exposure.

About this record
This incident is beyond the filings: attributed to a company statement, a regulator or court record, or a news report, and graded Attested or Inferred. Every figure links to the source it was read from; if we have read one wrong, tell us at info@hackerinahoodie.com. This index never sums figures across incidents. See the methodology.
