Boyd Gaming Corporation has received a fresh set of lawsuits in response to its recent major data breach.The news of the court action originates from the U.S. District Court for the District of Nevada, where former employees and those affected by the breach have taken legal action, as their data may have been subject to public disclosure without their consent.Boyd Gaming faces four new data breach lawsuitsFour new lawsuits have come to the attention of the global gaming and entertainment provider, including a former employee.Scott Levy registered his case in Nevada, stating that the attack exposed both former and current employee data, including information such as social security numbers.This serious lapse in the companys digital framework has caused chaos with investors and partners as Boyd scrambles to manage the fallout. As we reported, at the time of the breach, the company posted a Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) filing.Boyd stated in the filing that it has determined that the unauthorized third party removed certain data from the Companys IT systems, including information about employees and a limited number of other individuals.Levy and several former and current employees of Boyd have taken court action seeking financial restitution. His legal counsel argues that Before the data breach, the private information of plaintiff and the class was exactly thatprivate. Not anymore. Now, their private information is permanently exposed and unsecure.Levys case has been assigned to Honorable Judge Gloria M. Navarro, and Grayson Wells and John C.
