WASHINGTON, Nov 24 (Reuters) - Comcast ( CMCSA ) will

pay a $1.5 million fine after a vendor breach exposed personal

data from 237,000 current and former customers, the Federal

Communications Commission said on Monday.

The FCC said a debt collector used by Comcast ( CMCSA ) until 2022,

Financial Business and Consumer Solutions, suffered a 2024 data

breach that exposed personal information of Comcast ( CMCSA ) internet, TV

and home security customers.

As part of the FCC settlement, Comcast ( CMCSA ) agreed to adopt a

compliance plan that includes new vendor oversight practices

related to customer privacy and information protection.
