LexisNexis confirmed a major cloud breach on March 4, 2026, where hackers exploited a vulnerable AWS application and security misconfigurations to exfiltrate 2GB of data on over 21,000 enterprise clients, including law firms and U.S. government agencies like federal judges and DOJ attorneys.[1] This incident, the second for a RELX-owned entity in under a year, highlights critical supply chain risks in legal and government IT sectors.[1]
