About this listen

 Welcome back to the Identity Theft Resource Center’s (ITRC) Weekly Breach Breakdown, supported by Sentilink. I’m James E. Lee, the ITRC’s President, and this is the episode for July 18, 2025. Each week, we take a look at the latest news and trends related to data security and privacy. This week, the ITRC released our H1 2025 Data Breach Analysis that looks at what happened in the first six months of 2025 when it comes to U.S. data compromises. Let’s talk about the trends, but first, some housekeeping with some numbers: A total of 1,732 data compromises were reported in the first half of 2025, resulting in a little more than 165.7 million breach notices. That’s about five percent ahead of where we were at this time last year in terms of compromises. It’s also more reported compromises than at the halfway point in 2023, when we set the current high-water mark for data compromises.
