Construction industry data breaches expose employee payroll and HR records, client contract and payment details, and financial account information tied to contractors, subcontractors, and vendors. The construction industry is a frequent target for business email compromise and ransomware attacks, in part because large projects involve numerous parties exchanging sensitive financial and personal information across email and shared systems with varying levels of security. A breach at a general contractor, subcontractor, or construction management firm can expose data belonging to employees, clients, and business partners all at once. These exposures can lead to identity theft, direct financial fraud, and wire fraud schemes that specifically target pending project payments or escrow transfers. This page tracks confirmed data breaches at construction and contracting companies, including what data was exposed, when the breach occurred, which companies notified regulators, and what affected individuals and businesses can do next to protect themselves and understand their legal options.
