The FCC reached a $16 million settlement with Tracfone following three breaches between January 2021 and January 2023 that exploited API vulnerabilities and exposed sensitive customer proprietary network information (CPNI). The consent decree is the FCC's first to include specific API-security conditions and requires Tracfone to remediate API issues to industry standards, obtain external assessments of its security program, and train personnel on privacy and security awareness.
