Understanding your Lighthouse Electric Company data breach notification letter

If a Lighthouse Electric Company letter arrived in your mailbox, here is what it means, why you received it, and the free steps you can take right now.

Why you received this letter

Lighthouse Electric Company appears to be a utility and infrastructure services provider responsible for managing electrical grid operations and customer billing systems. As a utility provider, the company typically collects and maintains sensitive personal information, including customer names, service addresses, billing records, and financial payment details necessary for account management. In 2025, the company officially reported a data security incident to the Maryland Attorney General, confirming that unauthorized parties may have accessed internal systems. If you received a data breach notification letter from Lighthouse Electric Company, it indicates that your personal information was potentially compromised during this event. We recommend reviewing the letter carefully to understand the specific scope of the exposure and the identity monitoring services being offered to affected individuals.

What to do after the letter

  1. Confirm the notice is genuine

    A legitimate Lighthouse Electric Company notice references the specific incident reported to the Maryland Attorney General and describes which categories of your information were involved. Compare the letter against the public filing before acting on any links or phone numbers it contains.

  2. Keep the letter — it is your proof of connection

    The notification letter is the document that ties your personal information to this incident. Keep the original and photograph it. If you later request a case review, this letter is the strongest evidence that you were among the affected individuals.

  3. Protect your accounts and credit

    Depending on what was exposed, consider a free credit freeze with all three bureaus, new passwords for reused credentials, and monitoring of financial statements. These steps are free and do not require you to wait for anyone's permission.

  4. Find out whether you have a claim

    Whether the Lighthouse Electric Company breach gives you a legal claim depends on the facts. A free, no-obligation case review will tell you where you stand — there is no cost and no commitment to find out.
