Former Employee Sues Ceva Logistics Over Data Breach That Exposed Employee Records
A former employee, Kevin Krupa, has filed a class-action lawsuit against logistics company Ceva Logistics (CEVLY), alleging the firm failed to protect sensitive personal data during a cyberattack in late July. The breach reportedly affected eight warehouses across Europe and exposed employees' private information such as bank account details and social security numbers. The legal action claims that Ceva did not take adequate measures following an earlier 2025 ransomware attack by the CoinbaseCartel, which was also kept confidential. Additionally, two key IT executives left the company in quick succession—Bryant Duke in November and Susanne Shustein in March—which has raised concerns about internal cybersecurity practices. The lawsuit seeks at least $5 million in damages for negligence and breach of implied contract, with claims that Ceva prioritized cost savings over effective security measures. The suit also states the company did not formally notify employees of the breach, leaving them vulnerable to fraud.
