What happened in the Plant Construction data breach
On October 14, 2026, Plant Construction, which lists its address as 300 Newhall Street, San Francisco, California, was alerted to potential unauthorized access to certain files on its systems, according to its notice letter. Plant Construction's investigation determined that between September 8, 2026, and October 15, 2026, an unauthorized actor accessed certain systems within its environment that stored information and downloaded certain files from those systems.
The letter says the information potentially impacted included Social Security numbers in combination with names. The California filing lists Social Security number and name, and the California Attorney General lists the notice with a reported date of November 13, 2026. Plant Construction says it has no evidence of identity theft or fraud connected to the incident. It is offering complimentary identity monitoring through Kroll, including single bureau credit monitoring, fraud consultation, and identity theft restoration.
