UC extends credit monitoring and identity theft protection for UC members affected by 2021 Accellion incident

March 17, 2022

As a service to the University of California community, UC is extending the duration of the free credit monitoring and identity theft protection services offered by UC following the 2021 Accellion data breach incident.

Following last year’s incident, UC offered UC community members one year of free credit monitoring and identity theft protection through Experian. UC is now extending the free service for an additional two years, at no cost. Those already enrolled with Experian do not need to take any action – they will automatically receive the free two-year extension on the one-year anniversary of their initial enrollment.
