Texas Data Breach Reports Scraper

Export the official Texas Attorney General public Data Security Breach Reports listing into structured, source-linked dataset rows for compliance monitoring, cybersecurity research, public-record analysis, and lawful business research.

Use this Actor when you need a repeatable Apify dataset/API output instead of manually searching the public Texas OAG breach-report listing.

Unofficial / not affiliated: this Actor is independently developed and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, sponsored by, or maintained by the Texas Attorney General or the State of Texas.

Why this data matters

Texas law requires businesses and organizations that experience a data breach affecting 250 or more Texans to report that breach to the Texas Attorney General. The OAG publishes a public listing of those reports. This Actor turns that listing into filterable rows you can schedule, download, or feed into internal monitoring workflows.

The official listing notes that details, including affected counts and notice status, may change after a report is listed. Always verify important decisions against the official OAG source.

Common use cases

• Monitor newly published Texas breach reports.
• Track larger reported breaches by affected Texans.
• Filter reports by entity name, information type, date range, or notice status.
• Support cybersecurity, compliance, insurance, incident-response, journalism, or public-record research.
• Export the Texas OAG public breach listing to JSON, CSV, Excel, or an API integration.

What you get

Each dataset row can include:

• report ID
• entity or individual name as published by the source
• entity type
• address/city/state/ZIP when published by the source
• types of personal information affected
• number of Texans affected
• whether notice was provided to consumers
• notice methods
• breach start/end/discovery dates
• publication date at the OAG website
• source URL
