Brightstar Global Solutions Corporation, formerly known as IGT Lottery, is a “pure-play” global lottery operator with headquarters located in Providence, Rhode Island. They provide end to end lottery services, and they are the primary technology provider for seven of the ten largest lotteries in the world.
Last November 2024, Brightstar Global Solutions Corporation experienced a data breach they have recently discovered that may have exposed sensitive personal, financial, and even health data belonging to current and former customers. Notification letters began to be sent to affect individuals on October 3, 2025.
Brightstar Global Solutions Corporation has disclosed that over 100,000 individuals were affected by the breach. The compromised information may include name, contact information, dates of birth, Social Security numbers, driver’s license numbers, or other tax identifier, financial account information, and even health data.
The recent Brightstar Global Solutions Corporation data breach is a serious matter that could inflict far-reaching consequences for those affected. The exposure of personally identifiable information, especially names and Social Security numbers, poses a significant risk of identity theft, such as criminals opening financial accounts, taking out loans, filing fraudulent tax returns, and obtaining government services in the victim’s name. Personally identifiable information can also be exposed on the Dark Web, which poses a serious threat toward the privacy and safety of many individuals. According to a recent FTC survey, the total cost of identity theft is nearly $50 billion per year, with victims losing an average of nearly $5,000 from the misuse of their personal and financial information. The exposure of protected medical information can pose an even greater danger of identity theft—such as obtaining medical services in the victim’s name, which will be charged to the victim.
Current and former customers of Brightstar Global Solutions Corporation may face an increased risk of fraud and identity theft and are advised to closely monitor their financial accounts and personal information for any suspicious activity. You could be at risk of incurring additional out-of-pocket costs for purchasing credit monitoring services, credit freezes, credit reports, or other protective measures to deter and detect identity theft.
