Infosys will make payments of $17.5 mn towards settlement of US lawsuits for a cyberattack that led to data being breached.

The cyber incident was first disclosed by Infosys in a stock exchange filing in November 2023. The company said it was working with a cybersecurity products provider to resolve the issue and had launched an independent investigation to assess the impact.

The lawsuits were in response to the IT majors US subsidiary's cyber security breach in November 2023, that exposed approximately 6.5 million individuals information to unauthorised access.

Infosys McCamish Systems, impacted by a 2023 cybersecurity incident, will pay $17.5 million to resolve class-action lawsuits. The settlement follows mediation with plaintiffs and covers allegations against IMS and some customers.
