Flock warned Connecticut police of breach after internal records show prior knowledge
Original: I-Team: Flock warns CT police about a security breach, but records reveal the company knew about it
License plate camera company Flock Safety has notified Connecticut police departments of a security breach affecting its systems. Investigative reporting by WFSB's I-Team found internal records indicating the company knew about the vulnerability before issuing warnings to local law enforcement. The disclosure raises questions about Flock's transparency with police agencies that rely on its surveillance technology and how long customer data may have been exposed.
Why now: The discrepancy between when Flock knew of the breach and when it alerted Connecticut police is drawing scrutiny of the company's disclosure practices.
