Thomson Reuters says an unauthorised party accessed files associated with C-Track, its court case management platform. The company reports that the incident affects records used by appellate courts in multiple US jurisdictions and includes material from Ontario, Canada. Thomson Reuters says it detected the activity in its cloud environment on 30 June and has disclosed the incident as a cybersecurity event involving court-related data.
Context around the disclosure centers on where the accessed data originated and what the records contained. Reporting indicates that the records linked to the breach come from appellate courts across twelve US jurisdictions, alongside records from Ontario. While outlets describe the same underlying incident and impacted jurisdictions, their coverage focuses on different framing: one outlet emphasizes the reach of the breach through appellate court systems, while another highlights the cross-border impact across the US and Canada. Both accounts rely on Thomson Reuters’ disclosure and contemporaneous reporting about the scope and detection timing.
Thomson Reuters does not dispute the access claim in these reports; instead, the difference in coverage is largely about the emphasis on geographic scope versus jurisdictional detail.
