Capital One, Amazon Exposure of PII of 100 Million California Complaint

November 3, 2021

The complaint for this class action contains a quote from the CEO of one of the defendants, Capital One: “We’re building a technology company that does banking.” But that heavy reliance on technology, without adequate precautions, seems to have led to a massive data breach in 2019. The complaint bring suit against Capital One Financial Corporation, Capital One Bank (USA), NA, Capital One, NA, Amazon.com, Inc., and Amazon Web Services (AWS), alleging that Capital One’s data storage with Amazon did not accurately protect the personally identifiable information (PII) it maintained.
