T-Mobile US ( TMUS ) agreed to make a $15.75 million cybersecurity investment and pay a $15.75 million civil penalty to the US Treasury to settle multiple investigations into data breaches, the Federal Communications Commission said Monday in a statement.

The company also agreed to multiple commitments "to address foundational security flaws, work to improve cyber hygiene, and adopt robust modern architectures, like zero trust and phishing-resistant multifactor authentication," the FCC said.

"We take our responsibility to protect our customers' information very seriously," T-Mobile told MT Newswires via email. "This consent decree is a resolution of incidents that occurred years ago and were immediately addressed. We have made significant investments in strengthening and advancing our cybersecurity program and will continue to do so."
