cyber attack has exposed the personal information of more than 3 million Texans. 

Texas Parks and Wildlife said Saturday that a vendor that handles the sale of state hunting and fishing licenses was the victim of a data breach. An unauthorized user may have swiped personal driver license information, passport numbers, email addresses, phone numbers and residential addresses. 

Texas Cyber Command detected the attack, which the parks department said did not compromise social security numbers, dates of birth or financial information. Lawmakers created the command unit in 2025 to combat cyber attacks.
