Kalahari Resorts Data Breach Exposes Social Security Numbers of Employees - Claim Depot
Kalahari Resorts & Conventions disclosed a data breach in October 2026 affecting current and former employees, with 13,319 Texas residents identified as affected.
The breach was first detected on Oct. 9, 2026, when unauthorized access to Kalahari's network was discovered. A subsequent investigation revealed that personal information was compromised as a result of the incident. The ransomware group INC Ransom claimed responsibility for the attack on its dark web site hosted on the Tor network, stating they obtained organizational data from Kalahari.
The investigation determined that the types of personal information potentially exposed included names, addresses, dates of birth and Social Security numbers. Kalahari began notifying affected individuals by written notice on Oct. 30, 2026, and disclosed the incident to the attorneys general offices of California and Texas.
