ID verification giant IDScan confirms data breach with more than 150 million driver’s licenses stolen

ID verification service IDScan has confirmed that a data breach involved the theft of driver’s licenses from its systems, a week after a report said the identity document checker had been breached during a year-long hack.

The company said in a website notice that hackers stole the driver’s licenses from the company’s cloud; the stolen information includes people’s full names and driver’s license numbers, along with identity numbers from other government-issued documents, such as passports.
